About Independence Day in Eritrea

Ends: May 24, 2025
DESCRIPTION:
Eritrea's National Day, also known as Independence Day, is celebrated annually on May 24th. This public holiday commemorates Eritrea's declaration of independence from Ethiopia on May 24, 1991, after a long and arduous struggle for self-determination that lasted for about 30 years.
The Eritrean War of Independence began in 1961 when the Eritrean Liberation Front (ELF) initiated an armed struggle against Ethiopian rule. Over time, the Eritrean People's Liberation Front (EPLF) emerged as the leading force in the fight for independence. After many years of conflict, the EPLF finally defeated the Ethiopian forces in 1991, and Eritrea declared its independence. However, it wasn't until May 24, 1993, that Eritrea's independence was officially recognized through a UN-supervised referendum, where the majority of Eritreans voted for sovereignty.
Eritrea's National Day is a significant event in the country, marked by various festivities and activities. Celebrations include parades, flag-raising ceremonies, cultural performances, and speeches by political leaders. The day is an opportunity for Eritreans to honor the sacrifices made during the struggle for independence and express their national pride and unity.
