ToggleThe government typically announces three public holidays for Eid-ul-Fitr. If officials extend this from March 29 (Saturday) through April 4 (Friday), employees could benefit from nine consecutive days off when weekends are included.
This extended break would create valuable family time for travel, reunion, and relaxed Eid celebrations.
Official Announcement Pending
No formal holiday schedule has been confirmed yet. The final decision depends on government approval and the official moon sighting declaration. The prospect of a longer holiday has generated excitement throughout Pakistan.
Travel Planning Considerations
A longer holiday period will likely cause higher demand at major tourist destinations including Murree, Swat, and northern areas. Those planning trips should secure reservations early to avoid higher prices and limited availability.
