Madagascar - a name and date of a celebration and what is the celebration for?

Hello dooka-ga,

I believe you are trying to find a celebration in the republic of
Madagascar, along with a date.

From my favourite source on countries, the CIA World Factbook we learn
that their national holiday is Independence Day, June 26 (this started
in 1960).
SOURCE: https://www.cia.gov/cia/publications/factbook/geos/ma.html 

The celebration marks independence from France, IE: The creation of
the modern Madagascar state.

I hope this answers the question to your satisfaction! Please let me
know if you need any clarification, and I will do my best to further
assist you.

All the best,

tisme-ga
