Although we are still in the first half of 2020, given the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, it’s probably not a bad idea to look forward to the holidays for next year.
The Galician Government have announced the working calendar for 2021. There will be a total of 11 work-free days observed across this north-western region of Spain, with two of the days falling on a weekend – Labour Day and Christmas Day both fall on a Saturday.
