Christianity is the largest religion in Tanzania, with a substantial Muslim population as well. Smaller minority populations of Animists, African traditional religions amongst other faith practitioners, and religiously unaffiliated people are also present.

Tanzania is officially a secular state, and freedom of religion is enshrined in the country's constitution. Both Christian and Islamic feasts are recognized as public holidays.
