Eid al-Fitr marks the end of Ramadan, the Islamic month of fasting, and is one of the most joyful celebrations in the Muslim calendar. Families attend morning prayers, visit relatives, share festive meals and exchange gifts, and many Muslim-owned businesses close for one to three days. This US Letter sign announces an Eid closure with warmth and elegance. On a deep emerald background, four red and gold lanterns hang from gold strings at the top, and a gold mosque inside a crescent moon sits at the centre. Eid Mubarak appears in flowing gold script, with ??? ????? in Arabic below. A gold divider leads to the closing message, the dates, and a note that dates depend on the sighting of the moon, followed by warm wishes from the business.
Eid al Fitr 2027 Dates
Ramadan 2027 is expected to begin around Monday, February 8, and Eid al Fitr is expected on Tuesday, March 9, or Wednesday, March 10, 2027, depending on the sighting of the new moon. The sample sign shows both days as closed, with a note explaining that dates depend on the moon. Confirm the exact date with your local mosque or community announcements.
Why Eid Dates Depend on the Moon
The Islamic calendar is lunar, so each month begins with the sighting of the new crescent moon. Eid al Fitr begins when the new moon of Shawwal is sighted, which can vary by a day between countries and communities. The note on the sign helps customers understand why the closure dates may shift.
The Mosque and Crescent Artwork
The gold mosque with domes and a minaret sits within a crescent moon, a widely recognised symbol of Islamic celebrations. The lanterns, known as fanoos, are traditional Ramadan and Eid decorations. Gold sparkles scattered across the page add a festive touch. All artwork is editable.
Eid Mubarak in Arabic and English
Eid Mubarak means blessed celebration and is the traditional Eid greeting. The sign shows it in English script and in Arabic, set in the Amiri font. If your community speaks Urdu, Turkish, Malay, or another language, you can add a greeting in that language using a suitable Google font.
Editing the Eid Closure Dates
Click the dates to change them, and edit the reopening line and the business name. For Eid al Adha, change EID AL FITR to EID AL ADHA and update the dates; Eid al Adha 2027 is expected in mid-May.
Eid Closures for Restaurants and Bakeries
Halal restaurants, bakeries and sweet shops are often very busy before Eid, selling festive sweets, dates and meals, then close on Eid itself. Mention pre-order deadlines for Eid sweets on a second sign or in your social posts, so customers can collect them before you close.
Eid Closures for Shops and Services
Clothing stores, jewellers, salons and gift shops are busy in the last days of Ramadan as people prepare for Eid. Many extend hours during the last week of Ramadan and close on Eid. Our category includes a Ramadan opening hours sign for the month itself.
Where to Display the Eid Sign
Post the sign on your door and window during the last week of Ramadan, and keep it up during Eid. Refresh your website, ordering apps, and social profiles too. Customers will appreciate knowing your plans in advance.
Printing the Emerald Eid Sign
Download a PDF and print on US Letter card. The emerald background prints best on a laser printer or at a print shop. A satin finish brings out the gold details.
Sharing Eid Greetings on Social Media
Share the sign on social media with a heartfelt Eid greeting. The design works as both a greeting and a closure notice. Include the dates and the moon sighting note in your caption.
Eid Greetings From Non-Muslim Businesses
Businesses in diverse neighbourhoods may want to wish their Muslim customers Eid Mubarak even if they stay open. Remove the closure lines and keep the greeting and artwork for a friendly window display or social post.
Eid Gifts and Charity
Before Eid al Fitr, Muslims give zakat al fitr, a charitable donation to help those in need celebrate. Some businesses support local charities or food banks during Ramadan and Eid. Mentioning your support on social media shows community spirit.
Emerald and Gold Colour Options
Emerald and gold are popular for Eid, but you can change the background to deep navy, purple, or teal. Keep the gold accents for a festive feel, and ensure the closure text remains readable.
Eid Notices for Schools and Offices
Schools and offices with many Muslim students and staff may close or allow time off for Eid. Adapt the sign with the organisation’s name and dates, and add a line about how urgent matters will be handled.
Eid Celebrations in Your Community
Many towns hold Eid festivals, bazaars and community prayers in parks. If your business takes part with a stall or sponsorship, mention it on social media next to the closure post, inviting customers to celebrate together.

Eid Notices for Halal Butchers
Halal butchers are especially busy before Eid al-Adha, when families order meat for the festival. A butcher can adapt the sign to list order deadlines and collection times, then the closure dates. Clear deadlines help the shop manage large orders and avoid disappointing customers on the busiest days of the year.
Eid Morning Prayers and Opening Times
Eid begins with special morning prayers at mosques and prayer grounds. Businesses that open later on Eid day can mention an afternoon opening time, giving staff time to attend prayers and greet family first.
Celebrate a Blessed Eid
Update the dates and your business details, then print the sign. A beautiful Eid notice tells customers when you are closed and shares the joy of the celebration.
