Mid-Autumn and Confucius' Birthday 2026

A Friday and a Monday holiday around one weekend. Four days, zero leave.

Mid-Autumn in Taiwan means mooncakes, pomelos and barbecues on streets and rooftops under the year's brightest full moon. Teachers' Day, marking Confucius' birthday, became a statutory holiday from 2025 - and the two fall either side of the same weekend.
