The Governing Council of the Madrid’s community approved last Wednesday the working calendar for the year 2022. According to the regional government, the Community of Madrid will have 12 public holidays.
The most significant alteration of the new calendar is the change of the San José holiday, which when it falls on Saturday will be work. For this reason, it will be replaced by Monday, July 25, the feast of Santiago Apóstol. Another variation with respect to last year’s calendar is the change of holiday from Christmas Day (Sunday, December 25), which is moved to the next day because it falls on a weekend, Monday, December 26, 2022.

In this way, the Community of Madrid has established that the work calendar for the year 2022 read as follows.
– January 1 (Saturday): New Years Day

At 12 public holidays established by the Community of Madrid It will be necessary to add the two local festivals that each council will determine and you will have to advertise for the next several weeks. In the case of the city of Madrid, everything indicates that it will be:
– The November 9 (Wednesday): La Almudena festival.
