Melaka Public Holidays

Public holidays in Melaka or Malacca are generally the same as other states in Malaysia. However, it has several special holidays included in its yearly calendar which are the Declaration of Melaka as a Historic City, Awal Ramadan and Melaka Governor’s Birthday.

The Declaration of Melaka as a Historic City was declared as Malacca public holiday to celebrate the city’s designation as UNESCO World Heritage Site. This celebration falls on April 15 each year with businesses and offices closing their operations on that day. Awal Ramadan is a special day to celebrate the first day of the month of fasting in the Islamic calendar (Ramadan).

Since Melaka is not a Sultanate state, Malacca Governor’s Birthday is celebrated instead of Sultan’s birthday. Going back to the history, Melaka once used to be a royal state, but the system of monarchy was ended when the Portuguese dominated the state during the 16th century. The official date of this Melaka holiday depends on the birthday of Melaka’s current governor.
