Three public holidays in October are combined to create a long break at the start of October
Three October public holidays in Honduras are bundled together into three consecutive days to create a longer break at the start of October. For the private sector, holidays start at noon on the first Wednesday in October.
Workers in the public sector enjoy a full week of holidays.
The holidays are named the Morazánica Holidays as they revolve around the first of the October holidays, Francisco Morazán's Birthday which takes place on October 3rd.
The long break is intended to promote tourism in the country.
