Botswana Day

Botswana Day is celebrated on September 30th every year to commemorate the country’s independence from Britain in 1966. The Batswana people take to the streets to celebrate their cultural heritage with traditional events, street parties, and parades. The day is an opportunity to showcase the country’s rich cultural diversity, with indigenous displays of African music and dance. The festivities continue for two days, and tourists are welcome to join in the celebrations. It is a day to celebrate the country’s economic and social achievements and to reflect on its journey towards independence.
