Carlos Yulo Day is observed in Manila, Philippines, every August 4 to honor Filipino artistic gymnast Carlos Yulo, who won two gold medals at the 2024 Summer Olympics. The day was proposed by Manila City Council member Philip H. Lacuna, as Yulo secured his medals on this date. The ordinance establishing Carlos Yulo Day was passed on August 17, 2024, with the first celebration occurring the following year. The event commemorates Yulo's achievements, including being the first Filipino gymnast and the second Filipino athlete to win an Olympic gold medal. Although it is a significant observance, Carlos Yulo Day is not a public holiday, meaning it does not affect work schedules or wage payments. Yulo's journey began at a young age when he was introduced to gymnastics by his grandfather, and he has since become a prominent figure in the sport, celebrated for his skill and accomplishments.
