Why We Celebrate Father’s Day




Father’s Day is a special occasion dedicated to celebrating and honoring the invaluable contributions of men who have embraced the vital role of fatherhood. It’s a day to express gratitude towards fathers and father figures, including uncles and grandfathers, for the sacrifices they make, their commitment to nurturing and guiding children, and their unwavering devotion to their families.

When is Father’s Day?




Father’s Day is observed every year on the third Sunday of June in various countries, including the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, India, and several others globally.

2025- Sunday, June 15




2026- Sunday, June 21

2027- Sunday, June 20

Many countries celebrate this holiday at other times of the year. In Australia, for example, Father’s Day is held on the first Sunday of September; in Norway, Sweden, and Finland, on the second Sunday in November; and in some Catholic countries, on March 19 (St. Joseph’s Day).

Much like the origins of Mother’s Day, the history of Father’s Day in America extends far beyond just cards and gifts.
