Three weekends in a row in December 2026: when Belarusians will rest and what to expect in autumn
Until the end of 2026, Belarusians will have one series of long weekends – three consecutive days in December thanks to the Catholic Christmas on December 25, which falls on Friday.

Until the end of 2026, residents of Belarus will have another opportunity to take a short break - in December they are waiting for three days off in a row. Data on which days will be working and which - weekends, published in the production calendar for 2026: it was previously presented by the Ministry of labor and social protection.
There will be no additional weekends in November
Traditionally, Belarusians rest in November in connection with the celebration of November 7. But in 2026, this date falls on Saturday, so there is no additional day off. Accordingly, there will be no postponement of working days.
At the same time, schoolchildren will have a longer rest in the fall: the first holidays in the academic year 2026/2027 will be held from November 1 to 8 inclusive.
December will be a long weekend

• december 25 (friday);
• december 26 (saturday);
• december 27 (sunday).
You will need to go to work on Monday, December 28.
