About the Grenada holiday list

The public holidays for Grenada (also written Carriacou and Petite Martinique) in 2026, taken from the official list published by Government of Grenada, Cabinet Office and checked on 5 November 2026. There are 14 public holidays in 2026, from New Year's Day on 1 January 2026 to Boxing Day on 26 December 2026; 4 fall on a Monday and 3 on a Friday. 4 of the 2026 dates fall on a weekend: Independence Day (Saturday 7 February), Emancipation Day (Saturday 1 August), Thanksgiving Day (Sunday 25 October), Boxing Day (Saturday 26 December). The official list gives an observed day for 1 of them, shown in the Notes column. The 2025 list is further down the page, each with its own calendar download.

Each date is shown with its day of the week, because for rotas and pay the weekday matters more than the date, and the next holiday is highlighted. Use Add to calendar to download a year as an .ics file for Google Calendar, Outlook or Apple Calendar. For what a holiday means on the payslip read the public holiday pay guide.

How it works

  1. Read the 2026 table: date, weekday, holiday name and any observed day the official list gives. Past dates are greyed out and the next holiday is highlighted.
  2. Click Add to calendar on a year to download an .ics file with every date as an all-day event, then open it in Google Calendar, Outlook or Apple Calendar.
  3. Planning pay? Note which holidays fall on days your staff normally work; those are the ones that attract holiday pay or a premium. The free tools below do the arithmetic.
