Islam · 2033
In 2033, Eid al-Fitr falls on a Saturday, running through Monday, January 3, 2033.
Eid al-Fitr 2033 falls on Saturday, January 1, 2033. That is a Saturday, which means it lands on a weekend. It is the 1st day of 2033 and sits in ISO week 53. 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-Fitr 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 2032, when it fell on January 13, Eid al-Fitr 2033 moves about 12 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-Fitr marks the close of Ramadan, the Islamic month of fasting, prayer, and reflection. It begins on the first day of Shawwal, the tenth month of the Hijri calendar, after the end of Ramadan. Many Muslim communities mark the day with a special prayer, charitable giving, festive meals, new clothes, and visits with family and neighbors. Because the Islamic calendar is lunar, Eid al-Fitr moves earlier through the Gregorian calendar by roughly eleven days each year. This page follows the date in timekit's shipped religious holidays table, which is computed from the site's Hijri calendar engine. Local moon-sighting decisions can shift the observed date by a day in some countries or communities.
