UAE Residents Expected to Have 6-day Break for Eid al Fitr

UAE residents eagerly await the upcoming Eid al Fitr holiday, which is predicted to offer a six-day break in April 2024.

Predicted Dates

According to astronomers, Ramadan is expected to commence on March 11, 2024, with Eid al Fitr likely falling on Wednesday, April 10.

Official Confirmation

While the UAE government has shared tentative holiday dates, the official confirmation will be announced closer to the time through Moon-sightings.

Holiday Duration

Eid al Fitr holidays typically span from Ramadan 29 to Shawwal 3 in the Islamic calendar. In 2024, if Eid falls on April 10, then April 9 will mark Ramadan 29 and April 12 will be Shawwal 3 according to the Gregorian calendar, potentially granting a four-day break from April 9 to April 12, with the weekend adding up to six days off.

Optimizing Your Break

As the predicted dates for Eid al Fitr 2024 approach, it's time to mark your calendars and start planning for a well-deserved vacation.
