3. Date Formalization: While independence occurred in 1961, and the first celebration was June 19, 1962, a decree was signed in 1964 (effective 1965) to officially move the festivities to February 25.
February 9, 2026 at 10:19 AM
2. Accession Day Merge: The government wanted to honor Sheikh Abdullah Al-Salem Al-Sabah (رحمة الله عليه), who became Amir on February 25, 1950, and led the country to independence.
February 9, 2026 at 10:18 AM
Key details regarding the shift:

1. Climate Concerns: June 19, the actual date of independence, falls during the intense, hot summer in Kuwait, making public celebrations difficult.
February 9, 2026 at 10:18 AM
A 1963 decree merged the independence anniversary (June 19, 1961) with the Feb 25, 1950, coronation of the Emir who secured the nation's independence.

Why did Kuwait 🇰🇼 shift its National Day from June 19 to February 25 (, 1961)?

‎Kuwait shifted its National Day from June 19 to February 25 to avoid extreme summer heat during celebrations and to honor the accession of Sheikh Abdullah Al-Salem Al-Sabah (الله يرحمه).

Following the independence declaration:

•The UK 🇬🇧 recognized Kuwaiti independence on June 19, 1961.

Other nations quickly followed with recognition and the establishment of diplomatic relations shortly thereafter, including the United States 🇺🇸, which maintained a consulate there since 1951.
February 9, 2026 at 10:16 AM
While Kuwait 🇰🇼 was a British protectorate for over 60 years, Britain 🇬🇧 officially recognized the state as fully sovereign, ending its oversight on that date.
February 9, 2026 at 10:16 AM
The first country to recognize the State of Kuwait 🇰🇼 was CERTAINLY NOT the United States 🇺🇸 ❌. That was the United Kingdom 🇬🇧. ✅

The United Kingdom 🇬🇧 was the first country to formally recognize the independence of Kuwait 🇰🇼 on June 19, 1961, by terminating the 1899 treaty.

Best Asian Cup edition: Kuwait 1980 🇰🇼🏆
Worst Asian Cup edition: Zionist entity 1964 💩🐷
February 9, 2026 at 7:56 AM
The 1964 edition was by far the worst edition in Asian Cup history, ‘cause it was hosted in Occupied Palestine (the Zionist entity). But alhamdulillah Kuwait managed to get the Zionist entity kicked out of AFC in the ‘70s.

But if the moon is not sighted next Tuesday, the 17th and Ramadan begins next Thursday, 19th, then the National Day Party will take place on Wednesday, the 18th!
February 8, 2026 at 4:32 AM
Remember, Ramadan will either begin on 2/18 or 2/19 depending on the sighting of the moon!

If the moon is sighted next Tuesday evening the 17th and Ramadan begins on the 18th, the National Day Party will take place next Tuesday.
February 8, 2026 at 4:32 AM
Update: The National Day Party will take place on Tuesday, 2/17 rather than the usual days before Wednesday, the 25th and Thursday, the 26th to respect the holy month of Ramadan. While Ramadan is expected to begin on 2/19, others suggested it may begin on Wednesday, 2/18.
