UAE National Day, or Eid Al Etihad, celebrates the union of the Emirates and falls every year on December 2. In 2025, it\u2019ll be the 54th celebration and lands on a Tuesday. By law, December 2 and 3 are marked as National Day holidays. That would give us a short mid-week break… but here\u2019s where things get interesting.<\/p>\n
Could it be longer?<\/h2>\n
Under the UAE public holiday law, the government can shift holidays to the start or end of the week to create longer breaks. So, there\u2019s a chance that Monday, December 1, could either become a holiday or replace the December 3 break, giving us a full five-day weekend when you factor in the Saturday-Sunday off.<\/p>\n
More likely? The December 3 holiday could be moved to Monday, giving us a four-day weekend… still not bad, right?<\/p>\n
National Day falls right after UAE Commemoration Day<\/h2>\n
Observed on November 30. While it\u2019s not normally a public holiday, the law allows local governments (like Dubai\u2019s) to add extra days off. So if that happens, we could<\/em> be looking at an even longer break.<\/p>\nThis flexibility is all thanks to the public holiday law passed in recent years, which made planning easier \u2014 like how the Islamic New Year was announced in advance and lined up with a Friday. Handy!<\/p>\n
So\u2026 stay tuned and maybe don\u2019t make any firm December plans just yet.<\/p>\n
