On Independence Day, which takes place on September 08, 2025, Macedonia celebrates its liberation from Yugoslavia. The day is celebrated since 1991, after a referendum for independence transformed Macedonia from a federal state of Yugoslavia, which it was since the end of World War II, to a sovereign parliamentary democracy. The nationwide celebrations include music concerts, festivals and fairs. People eat ethnic Macedonian food, attend cultural and historical displays, meet other fellow Macedonians and have a great time.
