Latest News About When Is Eid Al Adha 2026

Eid al-Adha 2026 is expected to fall on May 27, 2026, with the Day of Arafah on May 26, 2026, according to multiple sources that track lunar sightings and the Umm al-Qura calendar. However, dates can vary by country based on local moon sighting announcements.

Key notes:

• Global announcements: Some countries align with Saudi moon-sighting reports, while others may declare Eid on May 27 or May 28, 2026 depending on local observations. For example, Saudi Arabia and several Gulf authorities have indicated Eid al-Adha on May 27, 2026 in their reports, but other regions have reported potential variations (May 28 in some local announcements) [web sources: Eid al-Adha 2026 date and moon sighting updates].
• Arafat Day is typically observed the day before Eid al-Adha; in 2026 it’s commonly listed as May 26 (subject to local sighting).
• If you’re planning events or prayers, check locally trusted mosques or Islamic centers in Los Angeles for their official Eid schedule and prayer times, as those announcements will reflect night-to-morning sightings and local calendars.

Would you like me to pull the latest local announcements from Los Angeles-area mosques or convert these dates into a simple calendar you can import? I can also provide a quick table of the commonly cited dates from multiple regions for quick reference.
