Monday celebrating (The 6th is the OFFICIAL date) D?a de los Santo Reyes Magos - Epifania / Three Kings Day - Epiphany



This is what the internet says....Is Monday a Holiday?
Is Wednesday a Holiday?
Are both a Holiday?
When does school start?

Are Stores open on Monday 4th or Wednesday ^th.......VERY CONFUSING!

No Dominicans that I ask seem to know either....


Thank you.

Three Kings Day

DR1 breaks for New Year holiday

DR1 will not be publishing the Daily News digest from tomorrow, Wednesday, 30 December 2015 through Monday, 4 January 2016. News will be compiled for the Tuesday 5 January 2016 issue. This includes the Three Kings Day holiday that is being celebrated on Monday, 4 January. Breaking news and commentary may be posted on the DR1 Forums 24/7. See http://dr1.com/forums/forum.php or check through the DR1 home page for the latest posts at http://www.dr1.com

If you are in the Dominican Republic, bear in mind that the priority for most people these days is spending time with family and friends. Best wishes for happy partying and the New Year!

Post #3 link (Three Kings Day) from Ministry of Labor is abundantly clear. Can't get anymore official than that.

Ministerio de Trabajo reitera feriado d?a de Reyes se cambia para lunes 04

Monday is the observed public holiday.

Also note from same link about the two other public holidays this month....

El Ministerio informa que el jueves 21 de enero D?a de la Altagracia, no se cambia, por lo que el feriado es el mismo d?a. En tanto, el martes 26 de ese mismo mes D?a del patricio Juan Pablo Duarte se trabaja y se cambia el feriado para el lunes 25.

It's good to note that though the official holiday was moved to the 4th, schools remained closed until the 6th (including).

dominican government often moves holidays that fall in the middle of the week.
in this case, free day has been moved to monday the 4th of january.
6th will be worked as a regular day.
school for kids starts again on the 7th.
