Kuwait is gearing up for a vibrant celebration of its heritage and freedom. During its weekly meeting held on Tuesday, February 10, the Kuwait Cabinet officially declared Wednesday, February 25, and Thursday, February 26, 2026, as public holidays for all state ministries, government agencies, and public institutions.
This break commemorates two of the most significant dates in the country's history: the 65th National Day and the 35th Liberation Day. Since the holidays fall right before the weekend, public sector employees can look forward to a refreshing four-day break, with official working hours set to resume on Sunday, March 1, 2026.
