About Public Holidays in Algeria
Algeria's public holiday calendar carries a strong historical and revolutionary character, shaped by the country's long struggle for independence from France. Revolution Day on 1 November is one of the most deeply felt national holidays, marking the launch of the liberation revolution in 1954. Independence Day on 5 July commemorates Algeria's independence in 1962 following a seven-year war. Algeria differs from its Maghreb neighbours Tunisia and Morocco by observing a Friday-Saturday weekend rather than Saturday-Sunday. Islamic religious holidays include Eid Al-Fitr, Eid Al-Adha, the Prophet's Birthday, and the Islamic New Year, all confirmed by official moon sighting. Oil and natural gas form the cornerstone of Algeria's economy alongside agriculture, industry, and services, with the work week running Sunday through Thursday and the weekend on Friday and Saturday. Islamic holiday dates move approximately ten days earlier each Gregorian year due to the shorter lunar Hijri calendar cycle.
