25 February - Kuwait National Day

 


Kuwait National Day is celebrated on February 25th each year. It commemorates the day when Sheikh Abdullah Al-Salem Al-Sabah ascended to the throne in 1950. This event marks the country's independence from British protection. Kuwait gained full sovereignty on June 19, 1961, and February 25th was subsequently declared a national holiday to honor the achievements and progress of the nation.

On Kuwait National Day, the country celebrates with various events, including parades, fireworks, cultural performances, and patriotic displays. It is a time for Kuwaitis to come together and express their national pride and unity. The celebrations often include traditional music, dance, and the display of the national flag. The day is an opportunity for citizens to reflect on their history, culture, and the achievements of their nation.
