Morocco Independence Day 2024
This Doodle’s Key Themes
Today’s Doodle celebrates Morocco’s Independence Day!
Parades take place across Morocco to recognize the country’s long fight for freedom. Moroccan flags, which feature a green five-pointed star against a field of red, decorate the streets, homes, and today’s Doodle! Street vendors serve parade-goers traditional favorites like couscous with meat and veggies, hearty stews, and sweet fried pastries shaped like a rose for dessert.
At home, people watch celebrations on TV and gather with friends and family. As night falls, fireworks light up the sky.
Happy Independence Day, Morocco!
