Islam · 2035
In 2035, Eid al-Adha falls on a Saturday, running through Tuesday, February 20, 2035.
Eid al-Adha 2035 falls on Saturday, February 17, 2035. That is a Saturday, which means it lands on a weekend. It is the 48th day of 2035 and sits in ISO week 7. If you are planning around it, the day of the week matters as much as the date itself, because it decides whether the observance creates a long weekend, a midweek pause, or a day that has to be moved under local substitute-holiday rules.
Falling on a Saturday, Eid al-Adha overlaps a normal weekend. Where it is a public holiday, many countries shift the day off to the following Monday, so check local substitute-day rules.
Compared with 2034, when it fell on February 28, Eid al-Adha 2035 moves about 11 days earlier in the Gregorian calendar. This drift is normal for a holiday tied to a lunar or lunisolar calendar rather than a fixed civil date.

Eid al-Adha, often translated as the Festival of Sacrifice, is one of the two major Islamic festivals. It falls on the tenth day of Dhul-Hijjah, the final month of the Hijri calendar, and coincides with the closing rites of the Hajj pilgrimage. The holiday recalls Ibrahim's devotion and is observed with communal prayer, family gatherings, charitable sharing, and, where practiced, the ritual sacrifice with meat distributed among relatives and people in need. Since the Hijri calendar is lunar, the Gregorian date changes every year. timekit uses its shipped religious holidays data for the listed date; official local announcements and moon-sighting practice may differ by a day.
