Girmit Day plays an important role in remembering the arrival of the , Indian workers, between 1879 and 1916.
Girmit Day is of particular significance to Fiji as it has long served as a reminder of the hardships faced by the Girmitiyas, Indians who came to work in Fiji on five- or ten-year contracts between 1879 and 1916 and who mostly remained in Fiji afterwards, accounting for the fact that the population of Fiji is now about 30% Indo-Fijians. In 2023, Girmit Day was declared a public holiday for the first time and the government emphasized national unity and forgiveness in the celebrations.
