Long weekends in Trinidad and Tobago, 2027
In 2027, holidays give Trinidad and Tobago3 runs of at least three consecutive days off, the longest lasting 5 days. Below they are listed in calendar order, followed by the bridge days that stretch a short break into a long one.
Every long weekend, in date order
| Starts | Ends | Days off | Because of |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fri 1 Jan | Sun 3 Jan | 3 days | New Year's Day |
| Fri 26 Mar | Tue 30 Mar | 5 days | Good Friday, Easter Monday, Spiritual Baptist Shouter Liberation Day |
| Fri 24 Sep | Sun 26 Sep | 3 days | Republic Day |
Bridge days
A bridge day is a lone working day sitting between a holiday and the weekend. Book that one day as leave and the time off joins up into four days or more. Offices tend to be quiet on these dates even though nobody is officially off.
| Date | Weekday | Next to |
|---|---|---|
| 28 May 2027 | Friday | Corpus Christi |
| 30 Aug 2027 | Monday | Independence Day |
The cheapest leave of the year: spending 2days of annual leave on the bridges above gives you 2 breaks of at least four days. Expect colleagues to have the same idea, so request these early.
How we find them
Each day of 2027 is marked as a working day or a day off, using Trinidad and Tobago's weekend pattern and its nationwide holidays. Consecutive days off are joined into runs; a run of three days or more that includes at least one holiday counts as a long weekend. A plain two-day weekend never qualifies.
Regional holidays are not part of this calculation. If your region has its own dates, you may get extra long weekends that do not appear in the national list.
