We are in line for a bumper four-day weekend off at the start of December to mark UAE National Day.

Commemoration Day will be marked on Saturday November 30 and then National Day celebrations
will take place from Sunday December 1 until Tuesday December 3.

This means that workers in the UAE will have Monday December 2 and Tuesday December 3 off work
which, when combined with the weekend, means a four-day break.

The Prophet Muhammad’s (PBUH) birthday, celebrated on the 12th of Rabi Al-Awwal – the third month
of the Islamic calendar – is widely recognized across many Islamic nations, including those in the Gulf
region. These countries, including the UAE, typically mark the day with a national holiday.
