Eid al-Adha in Auckland: Dates, meaning, traditions and events
Kia ora neighbours, the Muslim community is set to celebrate the second religious holiday of the Islamic calendar, Eid al-Adha, later this month.
The celebration will fall on July 21 according to the new moon sighting last Sunday.
Eid al-Adha is a holy celebration meaning “feast of the sacrifice”, marking the end of Hajj, an annual religious pilgrimage in Saudi Arabia following the footsteps of the prophet Abraham.
Eden Park will host festivities this year, with an expected turnout of 10,000 people for a day of fun activities and food stalls for everyone.
