I was looking to see if anyone had made this thread and I couldn't find one so thought I'd start it.
:D

A thread to celebrate all the world's weird, unknown, fun and bizarre holidays of the year.

I will try to keep it up and find an odd holiday for most days! Or if you know of one on the day, go for it!
(Not sure if this is the appropriate section to post it in but just thought it would maybe give people something to discuss)

Let's start with the obvious one.

Today is

Star Wars Day!
May the Fourth be with you!
A day for Star Wars fans to celebrate the franchise! Anyone having a Star Wars marathon today?
Image

This will likely be the most celebrated one today, but there are other events going on too!
Others include:-

International Firefighters Day!
A day to show appreciation to firefighters for the service,risk and sacrifices they make to keep us safe.
Image

Alongside Firefighters Day, it is also..

Wildfire Community Preparedness Day!
(First Saturday in May)
A day to educate ourselves on how to prevent wildfires. Things like discarded cigarettes can lead to a devastating impact on the environment.

Image


Some unusual ones...

World Naked Gardening Day!
(First Saturday in May)
I guess the easiest way to celebrate World Naked Gardening Day is explanatory in the title :D
I guarantee you there will be people somewhere in the world doing this today.
Image

Candied Orange Peel Day!
I guess today is the best day to snack on or try this! It's great on cake.
Image

Petite & Proud Day!
(First Saturday in May)
A day for people under 5ft4 (162cm) in height!
Image

These are a few for today :)
