The most important holiday in Turkey is Republic Day (Cumhuriyet Bayramı), celebrated on October 29. 

This day marks the anniversary of the proclamation of the Republic of Turkey in 1923, following the victory in the Turkish War of Independence led by Mustafa Kemal Atatürk. 

Republic Day symbolizes the establishment of a democratic and secular state, transitioning from the Ottoman Empire's monarchy to the modern Republic of Turkey.


Republic Day is celebrated with various events, including parades, concerts, and fireworks displays, particularly in the capital city, Ankara, and other major cities. 

It is a day of national pride and patriotic celebrations, highlighting the achievements and progress of the Turkish Republic


Holidays in Turkey are divided into national and religious (Islamic holidays). It’s worth considering this when planning activities with Turkish partners. 

Religious holidays in Turkey :


Ramadan in Turkey

Days off: March 29th – April 1st, 2025

Ramadan, the holy month of Islam, begins on the first day of the ninth month of the Islamic calendar. During this time, Muslims observe fasting from dawn until sunset, abstaining from food, drink, and other pleasures. 

It is a period of spiritual renewal, prayer, Quran reading, and helping the needy. Evening meals, iftars, are occasions for family and friends to gather. 

Ramadan commemorates the beginning of divine revelations to the Prophet Muhammad by the Archangel Gabriel, and it symbolizes unity and solidarity within the Muslim community.


Sacrifice Feast

Dates: June 5th – June 9th, 2025

The Feast of Sacrifice (Kurban Bayram) in Turkey is observed on the 10th day of the 12th month of the Islamic lunar calendar. 

It commemorates Abraham’s willingness to sacrifice his son in obedience to God’s command, demonstrating his devotion and obedience. 

On this day, every family with children should sacrifice an animal, such as a sheep, goat, or cow. 

Turks also celebrate this holiday through prayers, attending religious services, and sharing meals with family, friends, and those in need.
