Kwanzaa is an annual celebration held from December 26th to January 1st. The observance honors African-American heritage and culture. Therefore, the next occurrence of this celebration, following the same established timeframe, begins on December 26, 2025, and concludes on January 1, 2026.
The week-long festival reinforces seven core principles known as the Nguzo Saba. These values include unity (Umoja), self-determination (Kujichagulia), collective responsibility (Ujima), cooperative economics (Ujamaa), purpose (Nia), creativity (Kuumba), and faith (Imani). Celebrations often involve music, dance, storytelling, poetry, and feasting, fostering a sense of community and cultural pride.
