Public holidays, bank holidays and observances in Egypt for 2026

Egypt celebrates a distinctive set of national holidays shaped by its modern revolutionary history and ancient civilisational heritage. The July 23rd Revolution, January 25th Revolution, and June 30th Revolution mark pivotal moments in the nation's political transformation. Armed Forces Day and Sinai Liberation Day honour military sacrifices. Coptic Christmas reflects the deep roots of Egypt's Christian minority, one of the oldest Christian communities in the world, coexisting alongside the Muslim majority.
