INDEPENDENCE DAY

Saturday 1st November 2025.

Food fairs, sport competitions, dance festivals, art and craft exhibitions and even kite flying contests are held across Antigua during the month-long run up to Independence Day. Look out for the schools, offices and government buildings festooned in colourful decorations for the occasion and people dressed in the national colours. On Independence Day itself there is always an official address to the nation by the Prime Minister of the island and a gala ceremonial parade at the Antigua Recreational Ground.
