Eid al-Adha is celebrated on the 10th day of Dhu al-Hijjah which is the twelfth and final month of the Islamic calendar.
It is the second and largest of the two Eid's (which translates as 'feast'/'festival') that Muslim's celebrate each year.
Muslim's follow the lunar calendar where Islamic holidays always fall on the same day. However, this shifts depending on the Gregorian calendar with holidays falling around 11 days earlier each year.
