About Public Holidays in ኢትዮጵያ
Ethiopia follows its own ancient calendar, the Ethiopian Orthodox computation, which runs about seven years behind the Gregorian calendar and celebrates New Year (Enkutatash) on September 11. The country's holidays are dominated by Orthodox Christianity — Timkat, the Epiphany festival, and Meskel, the finding of the True Cross, are among the most spectacular religious celebrations in Africa — alongside the Islamic Eids and the secular Patriot's Victory Day in May. The Timkat procession in Gondar and the Meskel bonfires in Addis Ababa are national events.
In March 2024 there is 1 public holiday: Adwa Victory Day. In 2024, Ethiopia observes 12 public holidays including 12 national, of which 6 fall on a weekend.
