Press Release
Celebration of the 11th International Day of Yoga 2025 in Egypt
The Embassy of India in Cairo is pleased to invite everyone to celebrate the 11th International Day of Yoga (IDY) 2025, which will be held on Saturday, 21st June 2025, from 8:00 AM to 10:00 AM at Al-Horreya Park, Zamalek, Cairo. This special event is being organized in association with the Egyptian Ministry of Youth and Sports and the Governorate of Cairo.
This year’s theme, “Yoga for One Earth, One Health,” highlights the profound connection between individual well-being and the health of our planet. Yoga not only strengthens the body and calms the mind, but also cultivates mindfulness and inner peace. Through such awareness, individuals are empowered to adopt healthier lifestyles and contribute to a more harmonious world.
Every year on June 21st, the world celebrates the International Day of Yoga, following a resolution adopted by the United Nations in 2014. Proposed by India and co-sponsored by a record 175 member states, including the Arab Republic of Egypt, the resolution highlights Yoga's holistic contribution to health and well-being. The UN General Assembly recognized Yoga as offering a holistic approach to health and well-being and emphasized the importance of raising global awareness about its valuable benefits.
As part of our commitment to fostering wellness, peace, and cultural exchange, the Embassy warmly welcomes people of all ages, nationalities, and experience levels to participate in the IDY 2025 celebrations. These events are more than physical exercise, they represent a transformative journey toward inner peace, personal growth, and global harmony.
Join us as we celebrate Yoga, a gift from ancient Indian civilization that continues to offer timeless wisdom and healing in the modern world.
Date: Saturday, 21st June 2025
