Public holiday dates follow the Public Holidays Act of Uganda. The government can declare additional or changed holidays by notice, and moveable dates such as Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha are confirmed by official announcement after the moon is sighted; until then they are marked "Date to be confirmed" (the real day is usually the day shown or one day earlier). A few international days, such as Safer Internet Day, are announced afresh each year.
