Eid Al Fitr UAE
United Arab EmiratesPublic holidaysDate pending official confirmation
Eid al-Fitr in the United Arab Emirates marks the end of Ramadan, the month of dawn-to-dusk fasting, and begins the Islamic month of Shawwal. Across the country, the three-day celebration brings communal prayers, visits with relatives, gift-giving, charitable acts and shared festive meals. Visitors may see colorful lights and decorations, while shopping malls, parks and public spaces offer seasonal entertainment. Respectful observation is welcome, but prayer services and family gatherings are primarily religious and private occasions. Because Eid follows the lunar Islamic calendar, its Gregorian timing changes each year; check current official dates and local arrangements before planning your visit.
