Festivals
In honor of a significant figure or occasion in the history of the country, Liberians mark holidays and celebrate festivals. Every year, the nation's capital city plays host to the Monrovia Children's Day festival, which is conducted in honor of the country's young people. Thousands of kids from all around Liberia come together for the festival, which has a variety of kid-friendly events like live music, games, and competitions.
Independence Day, which is celebrated on July 26th every year, is a significant national holiday in this region. It is the most famous festival in Liberia and among the Liberian culture, customs, and etiquette. In addition, religious holidays like Christmas, Easter, and Eid al-Fitr are celebrated in Liberia. The nation was founded during the 19th-century slave repatriation, and as a result, it has tight ties with the United States. The celebration of "Thanksgiving Day in Liberia" is evidence of the close ties that exist between the two nations. The holiday is legally mandated to be honored, and it takes place annually on November 4.
