The 95th Saudi National Day: A National Celebration and a Spring Equinox

Arab Weather - The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is preparing to celebrate the 95th Saudi National Day on September 23, 2025. This is a significant national occasion that embodies the Kingdom's history, unity, and achievements over the decades. This year's celebration coincides with the astronomical start of autumn, when the autumnal equinox begins and day and night are of equal length.

This is what will happen on the 95th Saudi National Day

On the 95th Saudi National Day, the sun passes directly over the equator, marking the beginning of autumn in the Northern Hemisphere. Day and night are approximately equal in length, and with each passing hour, the sun's rays begin to gradually tilt southward, leading to a gradual drop in temperatures and the gradual onset of mild autumn weather in most regions of the Kingdom.

This time of year, the first signs of autumn are noticeable, such as the falling of leaves and the changing colors of plants, while the weather remains mild and suitable for outdoor activities and family outings.

Expected weather during the 95th Saudi National Day

According to the latest medium- and long-range weather maps, some areas of the Kingdom are expected to witness the formation of cumulus clouds on September 23. These clouds are expected to be concentrated in the highlands of the southwest of the Kingdom, including parts of Jazan, Asir, and Al-Baha, extending to the highlands of the southern Makkah region.

What are the activities of the 95th Saudi National Day?

National Day celebrations grace cities and villages across the Kingdom, featuring artistic and cultural performances, field media programs, the raising of the Saudi flag, and national events that reflect national unity and pride.

The 95th Saudi National Day will fall on September 23, 2025, the first day of astronomical autumn. An occasion that combines a celebration of the nation, the magic of nature, and the Kingdom's moderate weather.
