Citizens' Day in Armenia is a national holiday celebrated on the last Saturday of April. It was established to honor the unity and participation of Armenian citizens in the democratic processes and nation-building efforts of the country.
The holiday was first introduced in 2019, following the peaceful Velvet Revolution of 2018, which led to a significant political transformation in Armenia. The revolution was characterized by widespread peaceful protests and acts of civil disobedience which resulted in a change of government. The establishment of Citizens' Day is a reflection of the pivotal role that ordinary citizens played in shaping the country's modern political landscape.
On Citizens' Day, various events are organized throughout Armenia to foster civic pride and community engagement. These may include:
Armenians participate in local festivities and attend organized public events. They engage in discussions about social and political issues relevant to their communities. It's also a day when many reflect on their rights and responsibilities as citizens and consider ways they can contribute to the development of their nation.
Citizens' Day serves as an opportunity for Armenians to celebrate their collective achievements as a nation while fostering a sense of unity and shared purpose among its people.
