Previously known as Martyr’s Day, Commemoration Day is held every year on November 30 in recognition of the sacrifices the UAE’s martyrs gave to perform their duties to the homeland. However, as November 30 falls on a Friday this year (2018), all ministries and government institutions observe the event on November 29.
