Qatar's Listed Holidays for the Year 2023
News Article: Upcoming Holidays and Observances in 2023
Greetings!
As we move through January 2023, it's time to take a look at the upcoming holidays and observances for the rest of the year.
Firstly, let's address the dates that have been confirmed so far. March 5 is a bank holiday, and December 31 is New Year's Eve. On the other hand, no new dates for religious festivals have been announced yet.
However, we can make some educated guesses about the dates for Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha based on their typical timeframes and the lunar calendar's movement. Eid al-Fitr, marking the end of Ramadan, is tentatively scheduled for late April, while Eid al-Adha (Feast of Sacrifice) is expected to fall in late June or early July. These dates are approximate and may vary by country due to local moon sightings.
In terms of potential holiday dates, April 22 and April 23 are tentatively set for Eid al-Fitr, with June 29, June 30, and July 1 being possible dates for Eid al-Adha. However, it's important to note that these dates are not yet confirmed and official announcements would be necessary for confirmation.
Other notable dates include February 14, National Sports Day, and December 18, National Day. The March Equinox and the September Equinox are also approaching, falling on March 21 and September 23 respectively. The June Solstice and the December Solstice are scheduled for June 21 and December 22.
It's worth mentioning that no new bank holidays or religious holidays have been announced as of January 20, 2023. For the most accurate and up-to-date information, we recommend keeping an eye on official announcements from local authorities and moon sighting committees.
