Father's Day
Third Sunday in June (US 2006 date: June 18)
Father's Day is a holiday to celebrate fatherhood and parenting by males, just as Mother's Day celebrates motherhood. Typically giving gifts to fathers and celebrating as a family is the main event of the day. Father's Day is celebrated at differing times through the year, as seen below.
Father's Day exists almost all over the world to honor and commemorate fathers or forefathers. In the Roman Catholic tradition, Father's Day is celebrated on Saint Joseph's Day, 19 March, though in most countries Father's Day is a secular celebration.
In recent years, retailers have adapted to the holiday by selling male-oriented gifts such as electronics and tools.
