Long weekends in Angola, 2028
Angola has 8 breaks of three consecutive non-working days or more in 2028, each one created by a public holiday rather than by the weekend alone. The longest runs 4 days.

Bridge days
No public holiday in 2028 leaves a single working day stranded next to a weekend, so there is no cheap bridge available this year. Holidays that fall mid week, or that fall on a Monday or Friday and extend the weekend directly, do not create one.
How these are worked out
Every day of 2028 is classified as working or non-working using Angola's own weekend pattern and its nationwide public holidays. Consecutive non-working days are then grouped into runs, and any run of three days or more that contains at least one public holiday is listed above. Runs made of a weekend alone are excluded, since a two day weekend is not a long weekend.
Regional holidays are not included. In countries where regions set their own dates, the real picture locally can be better than the one shown here, sometimes considerably.
