Join us for Eid ul-Fitr 2024!
Eid Orlando is dedicated to uniting the Central Florida Muslim community for a family-friendly Eid prayer and celebration. Now in our 8th year, Eid Orlando will be back at the Orange County Convention Center, West Concourse, for Eid ul-Fitr Prayer on Wednesday, April 10th.
Eid is supposed to be a joyous time for the entire family, but with the genocide of innocent lives in Palestine, Sudan, The Congo and so many more suffering around the globe, this Eid will be unlike any other. Although we will gather our community and will still provide our signature activities for children, this year we will also incorporate ways to take action and extend our solidarity and prayers for those who are experiencing loss. Our joy will be a resistance as we come together for some special actions, especially using art and creative forms of solidarity and collective action, to be there for one another and our sisters and brothers around the world.
The event will take place at the same halls in Orange County Convention Center, West Concourse: the Valencia Ballroom with entertainment in Exhibition Hall D2.
The event includes:
