Uzbekistan to officially celebrate Eid al-Adha on June 6
Uzbekistan
Uzbekistan has officially designated Friday, June 6, 2025, as the day of Eid al-Adha (Qurbon Hayit), according to a presidential decree signed by President Shavkat Mirziyoyev. The date was confirmed based on the recommendation of the Muslim Board of Uzbekistan.
To ensure citizens can fully enjoy the holiday, Saturday, June 7, will be declared an additional day off for employees working under a six-day workweek. This creates a two-day observance window for families to celebrate the holiday in line with their cultural and religious traditions.
Regional governments, including those of Karakalpakstan, provinces, and Tashkent city, in collaboration with the Committee on Religious Affairs, the Mahalla Association, and other organizations, will coordinate festive events aligned with national customs.
