Eid means "feast" or "festival" in Arabic. Muslims celebrate two main Eids each year: Eid al-Fitr (the Festival of Breaking the Fast, marking the end of Ramadan) and Eid al-Adha (the Festival of Sacrifice, honoring faith and obedience).
In 2027, Eid al-Fitr is expected to begin at sundown on Tuesday, March 9, with the main celebration on Wednesday, March 10, 2027, and Eid al-Adha is expected to fall on or around Sunday, May 16, 2027.
