After enjoying this amazing 4-day long weekend, we can’t help but want more! We all made our way back to work on Tuesday with a heavy heart after a four-day weekend to celebrate Eid Al Adha. The country was off from Friday, July 8th to Monday, July 11th
While this break has been among the longest official holidays this year, there are more in store! The first of four official breaks remaining this year is this month. Saturday, July 30th will be a holiday to mark the Islamic New Year.
The next official holiday also falls on a Saturday. October 8th to mark the birthday of Prophet Muhammed (PBUH). While these don’t mean long weekends for those who get Saturday and Sunday off, it will be a welcome relief for those working on Saturdays.
But the holiday we’ve all been waiting for is the one to mark the Commemoration Day and UAE National Day. This would translate into a four-day weekend. December 1st, 2nd and 3rd would be the days off. December 4th is a Sunday and that makes it a four-day holiday!
So that’s the list of official holidays remaining this year. We’re impatiently waiting for December, to relax and have a long weekend. At least I know I am!
