Eid holiday in UAE will be from Saturday, June 15, until Tuesday, June 18 2024.
The new crescent moon for the month of Dhul Hijjah has been spotted in Saudi Arabia today, June 6, as per to the Royal Court of Saudi Arabia.
Friday, June 7, is the first day of Dhul Hijjah. Eid Al Adha, which is on the 10th day of Dhu Al Hijjah, will be on June 16. The important day of Hajj at Arafat will be on Saturday, June 15, 2024.
According to the UAE Cabinet, there will be a holiday for Eid Al Adha from Dhu Al Hijjah 10 to 12 (June 16 to June 18) and a holiday for Arafah Day on Dhu Al Hijjah 9 (June 15).
Eid holiday will extend from Saturday, June 15, to Tuesday, June 18. Since two of these days fall on the weekend (Saturday and Sunday), residents will enjoy an additional two weekdays off. This means people can look forward to a four-day break, providing a nice balance of weekend relaxation and weekday respite.
