Eid al-Adha, one of the most significant Islamic events, is just around the corner, and UAE residents are eagerly awaiting a potential five-day break.
According to astronomical calculations, Eid al-Adha is predicted to fall on Monday, June 16th, 2024, which, combined with the typical weekend, could result in a glorious five-day holiday from Sunday, June 16th to Wednesday, June 19th.
While the exact dates will depend on the official moon sighting, astronomical calculations suggest that the holiday in UAE will likely run from Sunday, June 16th to Wednesday, June 19th. Including the weekend (Saturday, June 15th), that's five days off to mark the festival.
The UAE has already observed two long weekends this year, marking the New Year 2024 and Eid Al Fitr. The country will continue to celebrate significant Islamic holidays, including Eid Al Adha (June), Islamic New Year (July), Prophet Muhammad's (PBUH) birthday (September), and UAE National Day (December).
