2023 begins, and many are already planning vacations and short getaways thinking about when the long weekends and holidays of this new year will be. Early planning helps to organize with time, obligations and of course with expenses. From the outset, those eager to temporarily escape from work already have the carnival weekend February as the first post: Monday 20 and Tuesday 21 are the first days that, together with the preceding weekend, would constitute the first long weekend of the year.
Then in March there is Friday March 24, a holiday due to the commemoration of the National Day of Memory for Truth and Justice.
Already in April there are two holidays, both very close to each other: April 2, Veteran’s Day and Memorial Day in the Malvinas War, and the 7th, but only the latter forms a long weekend in the month, since it is the Holy Friday.
However, the last weekend of April becomes a long weekend because Monday, May 1, is a holiday for the Labor Day. It is followed, in the same month, on the 25th and 26th: the first is the holiday that commemorates the May Revolution Dayand the second is a tourist holiday that makes a bridge with the weekend, thus achieving a long weekend that can be used.
The first holiday in June falls on Saturday the 17th, when the Passage to the Immortality of Gral. Don Martín Miguel de Güemes. However, it is a portable holiday, which is why close to the date you should be aware that the holiday is relocated, thus achieving a long weekend. For the rest, on Tuesday the 20th, the day on which the Passage to the Immortality of Gral. Manuel Belgranowill have the previous day as a tourist holiday, thus achieving a long weekend from the 17th to the 20th.
On Sunday, July 9, the Independence Day, but it is an immovable holiday. But in August, Monday the 21st will be a holiday in commemoration of Passage to the Immortality of Gral. José de San Martín. Of course: it is a movable holiday, so we will have to be aware that it passes, for example, to Friday the 18th.
Then until October there are no holidays. And in that month, the Day of Respect for Cultural Diversity It will have its commemorative holiday on the 16th, but it will end up being a long weekend thanks to the tourist holiday on the 13th.
