I just checked, and we are currently in Holy Week 2026. The interesting thing is that this year we have an extra-long weekend in Argentina: from April 2nd to April 5th. Holy Thursday coincides with Malvinas Day, so technically we have 4 days off if your boss allows it.



What few people know is that the dates of Holy Week 2026 change every year due to a somewhat complicated calculation by the Council of Nicaea. It has to do with the full moon and the equinox, which is why it falls between March and April. This year, Palm Sunday was on March 29th, and it ends on the 5th with Easter.

For believers, it is the most important week in Catholicism. Each day has its meaning: from Jesus' entry into Jerusalem to the Resurrection. Good Friday is the most solemn, Saturday is a day of hope, and Easter Sunday is the central celebration. Many take advantage of these days to travel or spend time with family. What do you do during Holy Week?
