        About Public Holidays in Lebanon

        Lebanon officially recognizes both the Western and Eastern Orthodox Easter calendars, so Good Friday is marked twice in most years, once for each tradition. The Feast of the Annunciation (March 25), adopted as a public holiday in 2010, is deliberately shared between Christians and Muslims since Mary's Annunciation is honored in both faiths - one of very few holidays worldwide observed jointly this way. Only Labour Day and Independence Day (November 22) are legally compulsory; most of the rest of the calendar is set by an annual government decree balancing the country's religious communities.
