Depends on the moon sighting

About Eid al-Adha

The festival of sacrifice, at the end of the Hajj, with prayers, a shared meal and gifts to the poor.

The date for 2028 is only listed once it’s announced, because it depends on the moon being seen. Also in May 2027: International Day of Light (16 May), Pentecost (16 May) and Teachers’ Day (Malaysia) (16 May). From this page you can add it to your calendar, get an email before it, share the countdown, or show it full screen.

How we work out the date
It’s the 10th of Dhu al-Hijjah in the Islamic calendar.
