by

Malacañang has declared November 16 to 18, 2026 as non-working days in the National Capital Region (NCR) as the Philippines hosts the 49th ASEAN Summit and related summits. This affects all government offices and schools in NCR, including Quezon City. This is a major announcement for Quezon City residents, as it provides a three-day break for workers and students in the NCR. It also highlights the city’s role in hosting a high-profile international event, which may bring traffic adjustments and security measures. The non-working days apply to all government offices and schools in NCR, but private companies may choose to follow or not. Residents should expect possible road closures and increased security around summit venues, and plan their commutes accordingly.
