Operational closure profile

What makes the Morocco calendar operationally different

The country page now reads the holiday list as a planning surface: density, month clusters, type mix, and bridge-day pressure. These signals are derived from the same retained holiday rows rather than generic country copy.

Calendar density

moderate public-holiday calendar

Morocco has 10 public holidays in the rolling 12-month window and 10 total retained holiday rows across all types.

Bridge-day pressure

5 public holidays fall on Monday or Friday, so long weekends are already built into the calendar rather than needing bridge days.

Month clustering

Public holidays cluster most strongly in January (3), August (3), November (2), May (1).

Dataset type mix

Dataset type mix is led by 10 public entries. This is separate from legal closure strength; always confirm local substitution and sector rules.

Cross-country comparison

Morocco versus regional peers

Peer countries are picked from the same continent (Africa) by holiday-name overlap with Morocco, then ranked by the strongest shared calendar fraction.

Country	Public holidays (next 12 mo)	Mon	Tue	Wed	Thu	Fri	Sat	Sun
Morocco	10	1	0	1	1	4	3	0
Gambia	9	1	1	0	2	3	1	1
Madagascar	10	4	0	0	1	2	2	1
Tunisia	8	0	0	0	1	4	2	1

Compared with Gambia (9), Madagascar (10), Tunisia (8) across the same upcoming-12-month window, Morocco's 10-holiday count sits at or above the regional cluster.

How to read the Morocco holiday calendar

Religious vs civic vs cultural mix

Classification mix across the next 12 months: 5 civic, 2 cultural, 3 other (10 classified entries). The headline reading: a civic-leaning calendar (Morocco weights toward civic observances in the upcoming window).

Weekday rhythm

Holidays falling on Tuesday or Thursday create the strongest long-weekend pull; Saturday/Sunday entries depend on whether Morocco grants a weekday substitution. 5 public holidays fall on Monday or Friday, so long weekends are already built into the calendar rather than needing bridge days.

Quiet stretches

Holiday clusters

Longest consecutive-holiday cluster is 3 days (Fri, Nov 6, 2026 → Sun, Nov 8, 2026), counting weekends adjacent to public dates.

Peer-country comparison

Calendar pattern notes

Public-holiday practice can vary by region, sector, and employer. Use official government or workplace calendars for legal closure decisions.

Holiday calendar method

How we calculate this: We load the current and next-year holiday rows for MA, intersect them with the next 365 days, classify each public-holiday row with a transparent keyword heuristic (religious / civic / cultural / other), and derive the weekday distribution, longest holiday-free stretch, and longest consecutive-holiday cluster (counting weekends adjacent to public-holiday dates).
Data sources: Holiday rows from the curated holiday catalog (src/data/holidays.json); country roster, ISO MA, and timezones from src/data/countries.json; DST observance from the IANA tzdata mirror in src/data/zones.json. Peer-country selection uses same-continent overlap on the holiday-slug set.
Update cadence: Page revalidates daily (revalidate = 86400) so the year-pattern card, next-holiday signal, and peer-comparison counts stay current.
