This 2021 will not have so many national holidays as there were in 2020. However, they are still just as expected dates to be able to break with the tedious routine.
Even so, of the eleven festive days this year only eight will be held jointly. On the other hand, the autonomous communities can move the other three remaining holidays on the calendar.
