Ticino Public Holidays 2023

Zoe| Ticino

For 2023, there are total of 11 public holidays in Ticino and 4 national holidays for 2023. If you don’t know them by heart, you are looking in the right place! It is very important to know these when working (but also visiting) in Ticino since you will likely not need to work on these dates depending on your company. You can also check in advance if you can enjoy some long weekends away by combining the public holidays with the weekend.

Why Does Every Swiss Canton Have Different Public Holidays?

As you may be aware, not all Ticino public holidays here listed are the same public holiday dates for other cantons. There are 26 cantons in Switzerland, but they all have their own local traditions and public holidays too. So it is good to know exactly which ones are suitable for the Ticino canton.

For those with children, there are also school holidays when they break up for vacation, which include 5 breaks throughout the year. These vary based on the school so it’s best to check these breaks directly with the school of your children.

Ticino National Holidays 2023

Of course alongside public holidays, Switzerland also has a few national holidays that are for everyone to have off work. There are often memorable, celebrations for these too. Here are the main 4 national holidays that all other cantons have as well, which provide a day off for you regardless of the canton:

From 1st Feb we'll be watching these @lakelugano b From 1st Feb we'll be watching these @lakelugano boats sail around the lake every day, because... 😍
....Today we started moving house 🏡! 
Everything has been amazingly fast, from viewing the place only 18 days ago, signing the contract, and of course spending our recent evenings packing. 
We've had a great experience with a local broker too and will share a new expat blogpost soon about it all.
We will be staying in Lugano 🇨🇭, but closer to the city with a view of Lake Lugano. Very exciting! ❤️

Frosty evenings in Lucerne 🇨🇭❄️ We took Frosty evenings in Lucerne 🇨🇭❄️
We took this photo last weekend when we visited the @lichtfestivalluzern and city. It was at least -7°c when we headed back to the hotel for bed that night. Brrr! ❄️
We do love the city though, a pretty destination for a day trip with some great restaurants, shops and things to do. 🇨🇭
Dinner tip: Head to Pacifico for a delicious Mexican dinner 🌮

It's from 21st January to 29th January 2023 only, so make a visit this weekend coming else save for next year! 🎈🎉
