About local holidays
Brazil has twelve fixed federal holidays plus the movable Carnival, which unofficially lasts four days. Independence Day is September 7 (1822), Proclamation of the Republic November 15 (1889), and Tiradentes (April 21) honours the Inconfidência Mineira hero. October 12 celebrates Nossa Senhora Aparecida, the patron saint. Carnival, while not an official federal holiday, empties offices — Rio, Salvador and Recife unleash their blocos. Christmas and New Year's Eve close the year in white on Copacabana beach.
