Armed Forces Day is a public holiday in Egypt.

Egypt celebrates Armed Forces Day on October 6 to commemorate the Egyptian Army’s successful crossing of the Suez Canal which led to the capture of the Bar Lev Line during the 1973 October War.

The Egyptian city of Alexandria is probably best known for its annual film festival, which attracts international attention, while during the rest of the year the city is alive with various religious and commemorative events.

Many festivals in Alexandria and throughout Egypt are related to either the Coptic or Islamic religions. All public holidays are also important events in the city, when various celebrations take place.
