As of my last knowledge update in September 2021, I can provide you with a list of national holidays in Pakistan. However, please note that holiday schedules can sometimes change or be updated, so I recommend verifying this information with an up-to-date and reliable source closer to 2023. Here are some of the major national holidays in Pakistan:
- New Year’s Day – January 1, 2023 (Sunday)
- Kashmir Solidarity Day – February 5, 2023 (Sunday)
- Pakistan Day – March 23, 2023 (Thursday)
- Labor Day (May Day) – May 1, 2023 (Monday)
- Eid al-Fitr – Date varies based on the Islamic calendar (usually a 2-day holiday)
- Independence Day – August 14, 2023 (Monday)
- Eid al-Adha – Date varies based on the Islamic calendar (usually a 3-day holiday)
- Ashura – Date varies based on the Islamic calendar (observance of the martyrdom of Imam Hussain)
- Eid Milad-un-Nabi (Prophet Muhammad’s birthday) – Date varies based on the Islamic calendar
- Quaid-e-Azam Day (Birthday of Muhammad Ali Jinnah) – December 25, 2023 (Monday)
Please keep in mind that these dates are based on the information available up until September 2021. You should double-check the dates and any additional holidays that might have been declared for 2023 through an official Pakistani government source or a reputable news outlet.
