The EDSA People Power Revolution Anniversary is a special non-working holiday in the Philippines. The 1986 EDSA People Power Revolution gathered millions of Filipinos from all walks of life to march along Epifanio de Los Santos Avenue (EDSA), the movement that restored the democratic institution in the Philippines.

In the Philippines, there are only two kinds of holidays: regular holidays, and special non-working holidays.

Regular holidays, are those that usually have a fixed date, such as New Year's Day, Independence Day, and Christmas Day.

Special Holidays, on the other hand, are more flexible. Apart from being enacted by Congress, they can also be declared by the President of the Philippines.
