As we cherish the memories of Eid 2025, let's look forward to the preparations for next year's celebrations.
Eid gifting
Eid is also a day of charity for many. “Eidi” or “Eidia” is a gift given for Eid to loved ones. Traditionally, it is money, but it also includes jewellery or clothing. Some people donate to charities throughout Ramadan. Many donate at the end of Ramadan before prayers, especially to charities for children, orphans, and those in need.
After Eid prayers, it is time for celebrations and gifts. Consider personalised gifts for your loved ones. We have a fantastic range of toys, including those for outdoor play and arts and crafts kits. If you want to treat the tech fans in your life, consider a smartwatch or an e-reader.
When is Eid 2026?
The festival of Eid al-Fitr begins at sunset on the last night of Ramadan. Ramadan is a month of fasting observed by Muslims. As it is based on the lunar calendar, the exact date can change. Currently, Eid 2026 is expected to be between Friday, 20 March, and Sunday, 22 March.
The holiday begins at sunset on the previous day. The date of Eid al-Fitr remains the same every year according to the Islamic calendar, which means it varies according to the Gregorian calendar.
What is Eid al-Fitr?
Eid al-Fitr is a joyous occasion that marks the end of Ramadan, a month of fasting and spiritual reflection. On this day, Muslims around the world come together to celebrate with their families and communities. The day begins with special prayers at mosques, where worshippers wear their finest clothes and greet each other with "Eid Mubarak" (blessed celebration).
After prayers, families gather to enjoy a festive meal, often starting with breakfast. It is a time for sharing and giving, with loved ones exchanging gifts and expressing gratitude. Throughout the day, the celebrations continue with traditional foods and sweets, reflecting the rich cultural diversity of the Muslim world.
