The UAE has confirmed that January 1, 2026, will be a public holiday for government employees in all seven emirates, as stated in a circular from the Federal Authority for Government Human Resources.
On January 2, government staff will have the option to work remotely, meaning their first day back in the office will be January 5, offering a comfortable transition into the new year.
Private sector employees await updates from the Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation regarding potential remote work policies for January 2.
In anticipation of the New Year, Dubai is gearing up for vibrant celebrations on December 31, featuring fireworks, parties, and concerts. Authorities will soon share public transport plans and road closures to assist residents and tourists in their celebrations.
New Year’s Day marks the first official holiday of 2026, with other significant observances like Eid Al Fitr and Eid Al Adha occurring later in the year, with Eid Al Adha potentially offering a six-day holiday in May for family festivities.
