Gabon Independence Day is celebrated on August 17 annually. This day marks the establishment of an independent country when, after more than a century, Gabon claimed its liberation from France. On this day, locals hold festivities, concerts, parades, and firework displays as a reminder of this freedom. It’s also a day to educate the younger generation and pass on the rich history of their country to make the feeling of freedom come alive. To pay respect to their country’s Independence Day commemoration, all the commercial and administrative establishments are kept shut.
