Holidays Bonaire

The public holidays on Bonaire are different than the federal holidays in the USA.

In the past, Carnival Monday was also a holiday, which has been exchanged for Dia de Rincon (April 30) after King’s Day was moved to April 27. Kingdom Day (December 15) is not a public holiday. Only a federal holiday for the government in accordance with the collective labor agreement. Liberation Day (May 5) and 2nd Pentecost are also not official holidays on Bonaire.
