How Where is March 20 a holiday? The communities that will have a Father's Day bridge

Month of March. There are fewer and fewer days left for Easter 2023 to take place. There are many people who are already looking forward to the holidays that will take place during said festivity. But first, in some places in Spain, there will be a bridge that will take place because Father's Day, March 19, falls on a Sunday.

This situation has caused said date to become what is known as a "substitutable holiday"; that is to say, that the communities have been able to choose whether to transfer it in their work calendar to the next day, to Monday, March 20.

Only one autonomous community has chosen to move the holiday from San José Sunday (March 19) to March 20. It is the Community of Madrid.

It is striking that it is not a holiday in the Valencian Community, whose capital celebrates the Fallas 2023 that week with the day of San José, patron saint, marking the end of the festivities with the Cremà. The fact that the 19th falls on a Sunday and that the Valencians have up to four consecutive Mondays in April justify this circumstance.

For the arrival of the next holiday in all of Spain, we will have to wait for the month of April. Specifically, it will be on April 7, Good Friday, when the next national holiday arrives.
