Do you celebrate International Cat Day, Pizza Day, or Talk Like a Pirate Day?
There are a plethora of observance days worldwide during which marketers can share content relevant to their industries, get involved in a movement, or simply generate more awareness. But odds are, you probably don't acknowledge these days until you see your favorite brand posting about it.
These social media "holidays" are a fun way to connect with new and existing followers who share an affinity for a specific food, fictional character, or pet.
While we don't suggest sharing content on social media and then adding an irrelevant holiday hashtag to it, these holidays can be a chance to promote your brand in a relevant way. Not doing so could cause you to miss valuable opportunities where your brand can join the conversations taking place among members of your target audience.
To help you plan for trending holidays, we created a list that you can bookmark, as well as a downloadable calendar so you can receive automatic reminders.
Downloadable Holiday Calendar
To help you keep track of all these unique holidays, here's a Social Media Holiday Google Calendar.
Aside from 2022 holidays, we've also set dates on the calendar to repeat annually — either on the exact date they occur or the weekday they occur within the month.
