Eid al-Fitr events return after Covid restrictions lifted
Large-scale celebrations at the end of Ramadan are returning to Birmingham after a two-year break caused by the pandemic.Before Covid-19 restrictions, an event in Birmingham's Small Heath park was among the largest in Europe, regularly attracting more than 60,000 people.
It returns at the beginning of May, albeit with a reduced 20,000 capacity, with public health measures in place."Eid is a joyous occasion, where Muslims come together to celebrate, spend time with family and worship as a community," project manager Saleem Ahmed said. "It is a relief to have such an important celebration return to some normality after such a long time."This year, Eid is expected to fall on 1 or 2 May, depending on the sighting of the new crescent moon.Events in Birmingham are being organised by the Green Lane Masjid and Community Centre.
Held in partnership with Warwickshire County Cricket Club, Edgbaston Stadium is set to welcome about 2,000 people.
