October

The Day of Automobile Workers is observed in Russia, Belarus, and Ukraine every last Sunday of October. This professional holiday, established in the Soviet Union in 1980, celebrates individuals involved in the automotive industry, including drivers, mechanics, and car plant workers. Despite the dissolution of the USSR, the holiday continues to be recognized in these countries, where the automotive industry plays a significant role. Major vehicle manufacturers in Russia include GAZ, AvtoVAZ, and KAMAZ, while Ukraine is known for ZAZ and Bogdan Corporation, and Belarus for BelAZ and MAZ. Although it is not a public holiday, it is a non-working day for most people, allowing them to celebrate the contributions of the automotive sector to their daily lives.
