Yumi 43

The Republic of Vanuatu will be celebrating its 43rd Independence Anniversary on 30 July 2023. The celebrations leading to the Independence Day and the Independence Day itself will be unique and celebrated throughout the whole country with pride.

The government, provinces, municipalities, the private sector, media, Vanuatu Police Force, churches, communities, chiefs and individuals in Vanuatu and across the world will celebrate the event. The celebrations will be the best ever celebrated since Vanuatu gained independence in 1980.

I am proud to lead the 40th Independence Anniversary Committee. We are determined to make it a successful and memorable event for all those celebrating throughout Vanuatu and abroad
