This study focused on the existence of Holiday Effect in Taiwan restaurant industry. We use GARCH model added with a dummy variable which stands for holiday event, in order to examine the abnormal returns and volatility before and after holiday. Our major empirical results are: First, in general, the after-Chinese New Year effect is most significant in abnormal returns. In addition, this effect mainly exists in the listed restaurant industry, but not in the over-the-counter restaurant industry. Second, in general the abnormal volatility often exists in pre-holiday, meanwhile all of the abnormal volatilities are negative. Third, the frequency of abnormal volatilities in pre-national holidays is higher than those in pre-non-national holiday. Fourth, different types of restaurants also receive different impacts in the same holiday.
