4-Day Weekend for National Day Celebrations

Monday, December 2 and Tuesday, December 3 will be public holidays. This gives government employees a longer break when coupled with the weekly Saturday and Sunday breaks. Made on Friday, the news guarantees staff members would have more holiday time. Ministerial and federal entity regular business hours will resume on Wednesday, December 4.

This choice conforms with the unified holiday policy of the United Arab Emirates , which gives workers in the public and private sectors equal number of holidays all year long. The policy shows the government's will to enable every employee to have a balanced work-life.

Commemorating 53 Years of Unity

Celebrated yearly on December 2, National Day honors the 1971 unity of the seven emirates. Since the UAE is commemorating its 53rd anniversary this year is especially unique. The formal Eid Al Etihad celebrations will take place in the gorgeous Al Ain natural surroundings. Usually attended by the Rulers and leaders of the country, these large events mark a momentous milestone emphasizing the UAE's rich past, cultural legacy, and successes.

Emiratis and foreigners both join actively in the festivities. Many families go to tremendous efforts to get ready for the holiday; some spend more than AED 6,000 to throw get-togethers with friends and relatives. One Emirati citizen likened the degree of preparation to wedding planning. Celebrations usually include in adorning homes and cars in the national colors of the United Arab Emirates and organizing different community activities.

Authorities published rules in past years to guarantee security and order during the celebrations. These steps underlined the need of keeping decency on the road, honoring public areas, and obeying rules to guarantee a happy and responsible celebration for all.

The longer holiday has greatly increased travel demand. The long weekend allows many UAE citizens to visit well-known visa-free locations. As people booked their trips in advance, flight rates to nations such Georgia, Azerbaijan , Thailand, Armenia , and the Maldives showed a notable rise in October. This tendency emphasizes National Day's appeal as a chance for locals to travel abroad.

National Day in the United Arab Emirates is a celebration, a time for solidarity, and not only a public holiday. It presents a chance for everybody living in the country to respect its founding and amazing path of development. Families have plenty of time during the longer break to get together, celebrate, and savor the celebrations while also considering the UAE's successes and the unity that distinguishes the nation.
