Oman celebrates its National Day on November 20th, marking the birthday of Sultan Qaboos bin Said and the beginning of the nation’s modern renaissance in 1970.  Under his leadership, Oman transformed from isolation to progress, balancing tradition with modernization.  The day honors not only the Sultan’s legacy but the unity and pride that define the Omani people.

From the golden dunes of the Wahiba Sands to the turquoise coastlines of Muscat, Oman’s beauty reflects the harmony of its people.  National Day is a celebration of peace, hospitality, and cultural heritage with values deeply rooted in Omani life.  It’s a time to look back with gratitude and forward with purpose, reaffirming a national identity built on wisdom, stability, and shared destiny.
