Prepared by Radif Partners · Method · holiday laws checked on 28 October 2026

In Rio Grande do Norte, 3 October, the day of the Martyrs of Cunhaú and Uruaçu, is cited as a state holiday. We have not yet read the official text creating it; in Natal, the municipal holiday law has been checked. 2027: 10 national and state holidays, 7 on weekdays, and 254 working days. The martyrs of Cunhaú and Uruaçu, killed in 1645, were canonised in 2017, and the date is remembered across the state. The assembly, government and Court of Justice portals would not let us read the law, so 3 October appears here as "not confirmed" and is not removed from the counts. In Natal, municipal Law 1,617/1967 gives Epiphany (Santos Reis) on 6 January, Good Friday, Corpus Christi and Our Lady of the Presentation, the patron saint, on 21 November, one day after Black Consciousness Day.
