September Holidays: A Full List of National Days, World Events And Celebration Around the World
An Overview of September Calendar: Holidays, Observances Events
Around the world, September is a beautiful month. In the Northern Hemisphere, the leaves are changing color for autumn, and in the Southern Hemisphere, it's warmer and the start of spring. Here are some of the best things to do in September around the world.
When you think of September holidays, Labor Day on the first Monday (time for a cookout!) is the first one that comes to mind. However, that's just the start. September has 30 days, and each one has its own set of holidays, events, and special days.
Another two weeks pass, and on September 17, the full Harvest Moon happens. In China, this is celebrated with the Mooncake Festival.
We also honor some of our favorite artists on the days they were born, like American folk artist Grandma Moses on the 7th and children's author Roald Dahl on the 13th. Another important person to remember is Grandma and Grandpa on Grandparents Day, September 8. This holiday always falls on the Sunday after Labor Day.
As of September 22, the autumn equinox, it is officially fall. That means it's almost time to wear sweaters! There are great times to celebrate some of our favorite fall foods, like acorn squash on October 7 and dumplings on October 26.
