Meaning and traditions

Bonifacio Day commemorates Andres Bonifacio, one of the founders of the Katipunan and a central figure in the Philippine Revolution. It is observed as a regular holiday and focuses on courage, independence, and the role of ordinary people in national change.

The day is often marked by civic ceremonies, history lessons, and tributes to revolutionary ideals. Because it falls near the end of November, it can also become part of year-end leave planning when it lands close to a weekend.

Long-weekend note

This holiday creates a 3-day weekend from November 28-30, 2026.

No extra leave day is needed for this break.
