Most of the holidays celebrated in Moldavia revolve the historical events that led to the development of the Republic of Moldavia. The Republic of Moldavia has many celebrated public holidays categorized into religious and secular holidays. The government sets the holidays' dates through the ministers in charge.

During the public holidays, workers are restricted from working since they are entitled to a paid day off on an official public holiday. Government offices, schools, and businesses too are closed when there is a holiday.

Being a Christian dominated country, the Orthodox Church is the major denomination in the country. For this reason, Moldavia‘s religious holidays are based on Christians doctrines.

Festivities accompanied by other activities such as songs, dances, and giving out gifts are the order of the day.

The other major Christian event is the Easter celebrations. Starting with Good Friday, Christians converge in churches to celebrate this important event.
