Second Sunday in July: Father’s Day (Uruguay)

Father's Day in Uruguay is celebrated on the second Sunday in July. This holiday honors fathers and male parenting, allowing Uruguayans to express their love and gratitude towards their fathers. The origins of Father's Day can be traced back to the early 20th century, initiated by Sonora Smart Dodd in the United States, with the first celebration occurring on June 19, 1910. While many countries observe Father's Day on the third Sunday in June, Uruguay has chosen a different date for its celebration. Although it is not a public holiday, most fathers can spend the day with their families, and children often create small gifts and greeting cards to surprise their dads. Families may also celebrate by going out for a fancy dinner or enjoying a home-cooked meal together.
