Eid Al Adha Holidays UAE 2026

The Eid Al Adha 2026 will bring probably one of the longest public holidays throughout the year. UAE residents have an opportunity to enjoy a long holiday according to the Islamic Affairs and Charitable Activities Department (IACAD). That is why Eid Al Adha is a great opportunity to go somewhere, things to do during Eid Al Adha, or have a good staycation.

Eid Al Adha holidays will start with the Arafat Day on Tuesday, May 26, 2026. The Eid Al Adha will then be observed on Wednesday, May 27 and then with the addition of further public holidays on Thursday, May 28 and Friday, May 29. These are the same dates according to Dhu Al Hijjah 9, 10, 11, and 12, as it is mentioned in the Islamic calendar.

When these official holidays are added to the weekend on Saturday, May 30 and Sunday, May 31 the total number of days off that residents can have in the UAE is six. This will make it one of the longest consecutive holiday tenders on the side of the people in 2026.

Eid Al Adha is a festival that celebrates the religiosity and servitude of Prophet Ibrahim to Allah. The event denotes sacrifice, devotion, and sympathy. It also coincides with the ending of Hajj pilgrimage in Makkah which is one of the most important religious gatherings of Muslims around the world.

The families at this time unite during prayers, celebrations and charitable activities. The value of spending some time off with friends and relatives is facilitated by the fact that the residents are able to reflect on the spiritual meaning of Eid on the day of public holidays.
