15 August - Liechtenstein National Day

 

Liechtenstein National Day is celebrated on August 15th. This day, known as "Staatsfeiertag," is the official national holiday of the Principality of Liechtenstein. The celebration combines both the Feast of the Assumption of Mary, a Catholic religious holiday, and the commemoration of the reigning prince's birthday, making it a significant event for the country.

The day is marked by various festivities, including speeches by the Prince and the President of the Landtag (parliament), cultural events, and a fireworks display. The celebrations often take place at Vaduz Castle, the residence of the Prince, where citizens and visitors gather to enjoy the national holiday.
