The previous Eid holiday lasted for six days, with the added occasion of celebrating Bengali New Year. Security arrangements have been made for the main Eid congregation, and senior law-enforcing officers have ensured safety measures. In case of adverse weather or unavoidable circumstances, the main Eid congregation will be held at Baitul Mukarram National Mosque at 9:00am. The Gor-e-Shahid Boro Maidan in Dinajpur has emerged as a contender for the largest Eid congregation, with a capacity for up to 500,000 to 600,000 people. This is expected to be the largest Eid congregation in Dhaka, featuring a procession and cultural events after the prayers.
