The season of Qurbani 2026 has now passed, with your incredible sacrifices bringing blessings to beneficiaries in 42 countries, several of whom went the entire previous year without access to any meat at all. As we look ahead to 2027, planning our next yearly qurbani sacrifices (also known as udhiyah) becomes important to ensure we can spread blessings to our brothers and sisters in even more places around the world.

When are Qurbani 2027 and Eid al-Adha 2027?
The date of the sacred Islamic month of Dhu’l-Hijjah’s start changes every year in the Gregorian calendar, typically 11 days earlier than the previous year’s Dhu’l-Hijjah. Additionally, the celebration of the holiday of Eid al-Adha (and thus its sacrifices) is determined partially by Saudi Arabia’s official announcement of the Hajj pilgrimage schedule.
With Dhu’l-Hijjah 2026 having started on May 18th, 2026, it is expected that Dhul-Hijjah 2027 will begin around May 7th, 2027. Additionally, since Eid al-Adha 2026 was observed on May 26th, 2026, it is possible that Eid al-Adha 2026 will fall on the day of May 17th. And God knows best.
