Parades, bands and schoolchildren's performances celebrate the end of the British Protectorate and the country's independence in 1965.
The Maldives were granted independence by Great Britain on July 26, 1965. On this date, Maldivians celebrate the end of the British protectorate. In Malé, the celebrations include street parades, marching bands and numerous schoolchildren's performances. On all the islands, flags are displayed on streets, public buildings and houses. It's a day of national pride, and people come together for moments of sharing that also serve to forge a sense of national unity.
