10, or Party Foundation Day, is an annual public holiday in the secretive state.
It`s typically celebrated by military parades, speeches and performances.
This year, a ballistic missile test could be on the docket too.
"The North Koreans love to fire off their missiles or have their nuclear tests coincide with a big anniversary.
That`s the way they operate.
On the 10th, there might be some kind of missile fired," Evelyn Farkas, nonresident senior fellow at the Atlantic Council, told CNBC`s "Squawk Box" on Monday.
15 last year, Pyongyang carried out its seventh test of the intermediate-range ballistic missile known as Musudan and followed up with another test on Oct 19.
Russian lawmaker Anton Morozov, fresh from a visit to the nuclear-armed state, said he believes Kim "intends to launch one more long-range missile in the near future," Russia`s RIA news agency reported last week.
"They are preparing for new tests of a long-range missile.
They even gave us mathematical calculations that they believe prove that their missile can hit the West Coast of the United States," RIA quoted him as saying.
