Holidays around the world

People around the world celebrate in different holidays. In Canada, I have been in different holidays such as Thanksgiving, Halloween, and Christmas. Nowadays, people are prepared to celebrate in Christmas. I was interested in all of the holidays in Canada. They are ver interesting.
In my country, we have two big holidays. The first one is called " eid al-fiter". It goes at the ninth month of Islamic calendar. People celebrate in the first three days of the month. They visit each other and participate the greetings together. Special dishes of food is made. The heroes of this eid are children. Adults usually gave out some cute and nice gifts for them. Candy and chocolate are common in this holidays. The second holiday is called " eid al – adha". It is a special Holiday for all Muslims. It goes in the last month of Islamic calendar. In this holiday, Muslims usually sacrificed at the ninth day of the month. Then they are celebrate and greet each other. Different kinds of food are prepared for this holiday such as kabssah and ma'amool. Eid al-adha will come after less than 2 weeks from now.
And what about you, which special holidays do you have in your country? And how do people celebrate in them?
