Brunei National Day - February 23rd
Brunei National Day is celebrated annually on February 23rd to commemorate the country's full independence from the United Kingdom, which was achieved on January 1, 1984. However, the celebration is held on February 23rd each year.
Gaining Independence
Brunei was a British protectorate for many years. While it gained internal self-government in 1959, full independence was achieved on January 1, 1984. The celebration is held in late February to coincide with the Sultan's birthday celebrations and other national events.
National Festivities
National Day in Brunei is a grand affair marked by elaborate parades, cultural performances, and patriotic displays. The Sultan of Brunei often attends the main celebrations in the capital, Bandar Seri Begawan. The day is a time for Bruneians to celebrate their national identity, unity, and progress.
