Get out your calendars, because I’ve got some exciting dates for you to mark. Before 2024 ends, we’ll see one more long weekend that will give us 4 spectacular days off. The occasion I’m talking about is none other than Eid Al Etihad! Most of you may know it by its former name ‘National Day’ which takes place on December 2nd. So, come with me, and I’ll share all the details with you on what we can expect for our Union Day long weekend this year!

Which Dates Will Be Considered Public Holidays?
The UAE Cabinet has confirmed that both public and private sectors will enjoy a two-day holiday to celebrate Union Day, falling on Monday, December 2 and Tuesday, December 3. And if your weekends are Saturday and Sunday, you’re in luck – this will give you a sweet four-day long weekend to relax or plan something special.

What about Commemoration Day you ask? Previously called Martyrs’ Day, Commemoration Day is held on November 30 and every year the UAE holds a a minute of silence at 11:30 AM to honour those who have given their lives for the country. While, unfortunately, this day may not always translate into a public holiday, in recent years we have seen the UAE give a day off on December 1st. However, this year November 30th and December 1st fall on Saturday and Sunday, respectively, which already makes those dates a work-free day for most people in Dubai.
So, now that you know what’s to come in just 2 more months you can start making plans for your ultimate escape. Whether it’s planning a staycation, mini international vacation or just lounging at home with your family and friends – be sure to stay tuned to Gulf Buzz as we’ll tell you the best deals and things you can do in Dubai and around UAE!

November 16, 2024I opened up a blogspot website and when I closed it 15 or so new windows opened back up to the same site. Why did that happen? Was it a virus?. Will it hurt my computer? How do I find it and get rid of it? I am running 2 virus scans right now but if those do not find it, how do I find it?.
