Eid feast

Post-fasting banquet

An Eid feast is a celebratory meal marking either of the two major Islamic holidays: Eid al-Fitr (ending Ramadan) or Eid al-Adha (the Festival of Sacrifice).

These feasts typically feature abundant food shared with family and community, often including dishes specific to regional traditions: The whole family gathered for the Eid feast.
