When planning calls, meetings, or project deadlines with contacts in Kenya, check this calendar first. National holidays often mean offices are closed, response times are slower, and banking services may be limited. Regional holidays (marked as "Regional" in the table above) may only affect specific states or provinces.
Kenya has 10 national public holidays in 2026. For recurring international work, build these dates into your project calendar at the start of the year.
