Father’s Day is a holiday of honoring fatherhood and paternal bonds, as well as the influence of fathers in society. In Catholic countries of Europe, it has been celebrated on 19 March as Saint Joseph’s Day since the Middle Ages. In the United States, Father’s Day was founded by Sonora Smart Dodd,[1][2][3] and celebrated on the third Sunday of June for the first time in 1910. The day is held on various dates across the world, and different regions maintain their own traditions of honoring fatherhood.
Father’s Day is a recognized public holiday in Lithuania and some parts of Spain and was regarded as such in Italy until 1977. It is a national holiday in Estonia, Samoa, and equivalently in South Korea, where it is celebrated as Parents’ Day. The holiday complements similar celebrations honoring family members, such as Mother’s Day, Siblings Day, and Grandparents’ Day.
History[edit]
Early history[edit]
For centuries, the Eastern Orthodox Church has appointed the second Sunday before Nativity as the Sunday of the Forefathers to commemorate the ancestors of Christ according to the flesh, starting with Adam and emphasizing the Patriarch Abraham, to whom God said,
In thy seed shall all of the nations of the earth be blessed
— Genesis 12:3, 22:18
This feast can fall between 11 and 17 December.[4][5] This feast includes the ancestors of the Mary, mother of Jesus and various prophets.
A customary day for the celebration of fatherhood in Catholic Europe is known to date back to at least 1508. It is usually celebrated on 19 March, as the feast day of Saint Joseph, who is referred to as the fatherly Nutritor Domini («Nourisher of the Lord») in Catholicism and «the putative father of Jesus» in southern European tradition. This celebration was brought to the Americas by the Spanish and Portuguese. The Catholic Church actively supported the custom of a celebration of fatherhood on St. Joseph’s Day from either the last years of the 14th century or from the early 15th century,[6] apparently on the initiative of the Franciscans.[7]
In the Coptic Orthodox Church, the celebration of fatherhood is also observed on St Joseph’s Day, but the Copts observe this on 20 July. The Coptic celebration may date back to the fifth century.[6]
Whether to celebrate this day worldwide or not remained a debatable topic. In 1908, Grace Golden Clayton proposed the day to honor those men who had lost their lives in a mining accident in the US. Though it was not accepted then, in 1909 Sonora Smart Dodd, who along with her five brothers was raised by her father alone, after attending Mother’s Day in a church, convinced the Spokane Ministerial Association to celebrate Father’s Day worldwide.[8]
In addition to Father’s Day, International Men’s Day is celebrated in many countries on 19 November in honor of both men and boys.[9]

Even though many religious families do not celebrate it, it is more widespread than ever. There is a popular phrase used by many parents: «Every day is father’s/mother’s day, so you shall love your parents everyday.» Most people just wish their father a happy father’s day, but many people from big cities go to a restaurant to celebrate, and many even have cake.

In Malaysia, Father’s Day falls on the third Sunday of June.[51]
Mongolia[edit]
The Mongolian Men’s Association began the celebration of Father’s Day on 8 August 2005.[52]
Nepal[edit]
The Nepalese Hindus as well as the Newars in Nepal honors fathers on the day of Kushe aunsi (Nepali: कुशे औंसी), which occurs in late August or early September, depending on the year, since it depends on the lunar calendar. According to Hindu calendar, the festival falls on the new moon day of Bhadra month.[53] It is also known as Gokarna Aunsi or Pitri Tirpani Aunsi.
In recent years, Nepalese non–Hindus have also adopted the Kushe Aunsi day.[53] It is commonly known as Buwaako mukh herne din (Nepali: बुवाको मुख हेर्ने दिन, lit. ‘day for looking at father’s face’) or Abu ya Khwa Swoyegu in Nepal Bhasa.[32][54] The celebration of the festival has been modernized in some ways in recent years. Children worship their father on this day, put tika on his forehead and give him sweets, delicacies and gifts as a part of celebration. In return, the father bless good fortune to his children.
On the new moon day (Amavasya), it is traditional to pay respect to one’s deceased father; Hindus go to the Shiva temple of Gokarneswor Mahadev, in Gokarna, a suburb of Kathmandu[55] while Buddhists go to Jana Bahal (Seto Machhendranath or white Tara) temple in Kathmandu.
Traditionally, in the Kathmandu Valley, the south-western corner is reserved for women and women-related rituals, and the north-eastern is for men and men-related rituals. The worship place for Mata Tirtha Aunsi (‘Mother Pilgrimage New Moon’) is located in Mata Tirtha in the south-western half of the valley, while the worship place for Gokarna Aunsi is located in the north-eastern half. This division is reflected in many aspects of the life in the Kathmandu Valley.[56]
Pakistan[edit]

Philippines[edit]
In the Philippines, Father’s Day is officially celebrated every third Sunday of June according to a recent presidential proclamation,[59] but it is not a public holiday. It is more widely observed by the public on the third Sunday of June perhaps due to American influence and as proclaimed in 1988 by Philippine President Corazon Aquino.[60]
Under Proclamation No. 58, series of 1998, issued by then Philippine President Joseph Ejercito Estrada, the first Monday of December of every year was designated as Mother’s Day and Father’s Day, expressly repealing the third Sunday of June observance.
Singapore[edit]
In Singapore, Father’s Day is celebrated on the third Sunday of June but is not a public holiday.[61]
South Korea[edit]
In South Korea, Parents’ Day (Korean: 어버이날) is celebrated on 8 May and is not a public holiday.[62] Setting Parents’ Day as a national holiday and holding a pan-national event is intended to inherit and develop traditional ethical standards such as filial piety and senior citizens’ ideology. Regardless of age or gender, this day is also an opportunity to reaffirm that traditional filial piety is a crucial norm and cultural value in modern society. The ceremony to mark Parents’ Day as an anniversary and put on carnations stems from a Christian culture. As Western religions and cultures entered, this holiday, which was introduced together, became the most traditional holiday combined with Confucian filial piety in the process of establishing itself.
Sri Lanka[edit]

Taiwan[edit]
In Taiwan, Father’s Day is not an official holiday, but is widely observed on 8 August, the eighth day of the eighth month of the year. In Mandarin Chinese, the pronunciation of the number eight is bā, and the pronunciation is very similar to the character 爸 (bà), which means «pa» or «dad». The eighth day of the eighth month (bā-bā) is a pun for dad (爸爸; bàba). Taiwan, therefore, sometimes refer to 8 August as «Bābā Holiday» as a pun for «Dad’s Holiday» (爸爸節) or the more formal «Father’s Day» (父親節).[64]
Thailand[edit]
In Thailand, Father’s Day is observed on 5 December, the birthday of the late King Bhumibol Adulyadej (Rama IX).[30] In Thailand, Father’s Day, as well as Mother’s Day, are national public holidays. Traditionally, Thais celebrate by giving their father or grandfather a canna flower (ดอกพุทธรักษา, Dok Buddha Raksa), which is considered a masculine flower; however, this is not as commonly practiced today. Thai people will wear yellow on this day to show respect for the late king, because yellow is the color of the day for Monday, the day King Bhumibol Adulyadej was born. Thais flood the Sanam Luang, a massive park in front of the palace, to watch the king give his annual speech, and often stay until the evening when there is a national ceremony. Thais will light candles and show respect to the king by declaring their faith. This ceremony happens in almost every village in Thailand, and even overseas at Thai organizations.[65]
It first gained nationwide popularity in the 1980s as part of a campaign by Prime Minister Prem Tinsulanonda to promote Thailand’s royal family.[30] Mother’s Day is celebrated on the birthday of Queen Sirikit,[30] 12 August.

In 1950, they introduced «la Fête des Pères», which would take place every third Sunday of June (following the American example). Their slogan «Nos papas nous l’ont dit, pour la fête des pères, ils désirent tous un Flaminaire» (Our daddies told us, for Father’s Day, they all want a Flaminaire). In 1952, the holiday was officially decreed. A national Father’s Day committee was set up to give a prize for fathers who deserved it most (originally, candidates were nominated by the social services of each town hall’s/mayor’s office); This complements la Fête des Mères (Mother’s Day) which was made official in France in 1928 and added to the calendar in Vichy in 1941.[76]
Germany[edit]
Hiking tour on Father’s Day with smaller wagons.
In Germany, Father’s Day (Vatertag) is celebrated differently from other parts of the world.[77] It is always celebrated on Ascension Day (the Thursday forty days after Easter), which is a federal holiday. Regionally, it is also called gentlemen’s day, Herrentag. It is a tradition for groups of males (young and old but usually excluding pre-teenage boys) to do a hiking tour with one or more smaller wagons, Bollerwagen, pulled by manpower. In the wagons are wine or beer bottles (according to the region) and traditional regional food, Hausmannskost. Many men use this holiday as an opportunity to get drunk.[77] According to the Federal Statistical Office of Germany, alcohol-related traffic accidents treble on this day.[78] The tradition of Father’s Day is especially prevalent in Eastern Germany.[77]
These traditions are probably rooted in Christian Ascension Day’s processions to the farmlands, which has been celebrated since the 18th century.[79][80] Men would be seated in a wooden cart and carried to the village’s plaza, and the mayor would award a prize to the father who had the most children, usually with a big piece of ham.[79] In the late 19th century the religious component was progressively lost, especially in urban areas such as Berlin, and groups of men organized walking excursions with beer and ham.[79] By the 20th century, alcohol consumption had become a major part of the tradition.[79][81] Many people will take the following Friday off work, and some schools are closed on that Friday as well; many people then use the resulting four-day-long weekend for a short vacation.

Australia[edit]
In Australia, Father’s Day is celebrated on the first Sunday of September, which is the first Sunday of spring in Australia. Most families present fathers with gifts and cards, and share a meal. It is not a public holiday.
The idea of Father’s Day wasn’t initially well received in Australia in the 1910s and 1920s. Many thought it was either unnecessary or undermined a father’s assumed “supremacy” as head of the household. Newspapers at the time printed satirical poems and critical editorials of the new American tradition.[111] Father’s Day was originally observed in June, matching the USA date, with church services and the wearing of a red flower.[112] In June 1925, Janet Heyden of Sydney (who also advocated for Mother’s Day celebrations in Australia) began collecting donations to bring cheer to elderly men in nursing homes. While Mother’s Day became instantly popular, it wasn’t until the 1930s that Father’s Day came to be popularly celebrated in Australia on the first Sunday in September. The Father’s Day Council of Australia was established in 1957 and continues to honor distinguished fathers with an annual Australian Father of the Year award. Father’s Day traditions in Australia include school crafts with handmade gifts and cards from younger children, taking dad out for lunch, BBQs, and outdoor family activities. Public schools often hold a Father’s Day gift stall with inexpensive presents for fathers, grandfathers, carers, or other role-models.
YMCA Victoria continues the tradition of honoring the role fathers and father figures play in parenting through the annual awarding of Local Community Father of the Year in 32 municipalities in Victoria. The Father’s Day Council of Victoria also annually recognizes fathers in the Victorian Father of the Year Award.[113]

Attempts have been made to change the date to 24 August, to commemorate the day on which the «Father of the Nation», José de San Martín, became a father.[14] In 1953, the proposal to celebrate Father’s Day in all educational establishments on 24 August, in honor of José de San Martín, was raised to the General Direction of Schools of Mendoza Province. The day was celebrated for the first time in 1958, on the third Sunday of June, but it was not included in the school calendars due to pressure from several groups.[119]
Schools in the Mendoza Province continued to celebrate Father’s Day on 24 August, and in 1982 the provincial governor passed a law declaring Father’s Day in the province to be celebrated on that day.[119]
In 2004, a proposal to change the date to 24 August was presented to the Argentine Chamber of Deputies as a single, unified project.
Bolivia[edit]
In Bolivia Father’s Day (Día del padre, in Spanish) is celebrated on 19 March (Saint Joseph Day). People usually give a present to their fathers and spend time with them.
Brazil[edit]
In Brazil Father’s Day (Dia dos Pais, in Portuguese) is celebrated three months after Mother’s Day, on the second Sunday of August. Publicist Sylvio Bhering picked the day in honor of Saint Joachim, patron of fathers. While it is not an official holiday (see Public holidays in Brazil), it is widely observed and typically involves spending time with and giving gifts to one’s father or father figure.
Chile[edit]
In Chile Father’s Day (Día del padre, in Spanish) is officially celebrated on 19 June.[120]
Colombia[edit]
In Colombia, Father’s Day (Día del padre, in Spanish) is celebrated on the third Sunday of June. In 2022, it was officially celebrated on 26 June to avoid coinciding with the second round of the presidential elections.[121]
Paraguay[edit]
In Paraguay, Father’s Day is typically celebrated with a traditional banquet of Paraguayan food like chipa, mbeju, bori, soyo and sopa paraguaya. In Paraguay Father’s Day is a very important day, and is celebrated with much fervor.
Peru[edit]
In Peru, Father’s Day is celebrated on the third Sunday of June and is not a public holiday. People usually give a present to their fathers and spend time with them mostly during a family meal.

Father’s Day is a holiday of honoring fatherhood and paternal bonds, as well as the influence of fathers in society. In Catholic countries of Europe, it has been celebrated on 19 March as Saint Joseph’s Day since the Middle Ages. In the United States, Father’s Day was founded by Sonora Smart Dodd,[1][2][3] and celebrated on the third Sunday of June for the first time in 1910. The day is held on various dates across the world, and different regions maintain their own traditions of honoring fatherhood.
Father’s Day is a recognized public holiday in Lithuania and some parts of Spain and was regarded as such in Italy until 1977. It is a national holiday in Estonia, Samoa, and equivalently in South Korea, where it is celebrated as Parents’ Day. The holiday complements similar celebrations honoring family members, such as Mother’s Day, Siblings Day, and Grandparents’ Day.
History[edit]
Early history[edit]
For centuries, the Eastern Orthodox Church has appointed the second Sunday before Nativity as the Sunday of the Forefathers to commemorate the ancestors of Christ according to the flesh, starting with Adam and emphasizing the Patriarch Abraham, to whom God said,
In thy seed shall all of the nations of the earth be blessed
— Genesis 12:3, 22:18
This feast can fall between 11 and 17 December.[4][5] This feast includes the ancestors of the Mary, mother of Jesus and various prophets.
A customary day for the celebration of fatherhood in Catholic Europe is known to date back to at least 1508. It is usually celebrated on 19 March, as the feast day of Saint Joseph, who is referred to as the fatherly Nutritor Domini («Nourisher of the Lord») in Catholicism and «the putative father of Jesus» in southern European tradition. This celebration was brought to the Americas by the Spanish and Portuguese. The Catholic Church actively supported the custom of a celebration of fatherhood on St. Joseph’s Day from either the last years of the 14th century or from the early 15th century,[6] apparently on the initiative of the Franciscans.[7]
In the Coptic Orthodox Church, the celebration of fatherhood is also observed on St Joseph’s Day, but the Copts observe this on 20 July. The Coptic celebration may date back to the fifth century.[6]
Whether to celebrate this day worldwide or not remained a debatable topic. In 1908, Grace Golden Clayton proposed the day to honor those men who had lost their lives in a mining accident in the US. Though it was not accepted then, in 1909 Sonora Smart Dodd, who along with her five brothers was raised by her father alone, after attending Mother’s Day in a church, convinced the Spokane Ministerial Association to celebrate Father’s Day worldwide.[8]
In addition to Father’s Day, International Men’s Day is celebrated in many countries on 19 November in honor of both men and boys.[9]

Father’s Day was not very popular and had been made more widespread by the Millennial and Generation Z communities all over the country through social media in recent times. Even though many religious families do not celebrate it, it is more widespread than ever. There is a popular phrase used by many parents: «Every day is father’s/mother’s day, so you shall love your parents everyday.» Most people just wish their father a happy father’s day, but many people from big cities go to a restaurant to celebrate, and many even have cake.

Nepal[edit]
The Nepalese Hindus as well as the Newars in Nepal honors fathers on the day of Kushe aunsi (Nepali: कुशे औंसी), which occurs in late August or early September, depending on the year, since it depends on the lunar calendar. According to Hindu calendar, the festival falls on the new moon day of Bhadra month.[53] It is also known as Gokarna Aunsi or Pitri Tirpani Aunsi.
In recent years, Nepalese non–Hindus have also adopted the Kushe Aunsi day.[53] It is commonly known as Buwaako mukh herne din (Nepali: बुवाको मुख हेर्ने दिन, lit. ‘day for looking at father’s face’) or Abu ya Khwa Swoyegu in Nepal Bhasa.[32][54] The celebration of the festival has been modernized in some ways in recent years. Children worship their father on this day, put tika on his forehead and give him sweets, delicacies and gifts as a part of celebration. In return, the father bless good fortune to his children.
On the new moon day (Amavasya), it is traditional to pay respect to one’s deceased father; Hindus go to the Shiva temple of Gokarneswor Mahadev, in Gokarna, a suburb of Kathmandu[55] while Buddhists go to Jana Bahal (Seto Machhendranath or white Tara) temple in Kathmandu.
Traditionally, in the Kathmandu Valley, the south-western corner is reserved for women and women-related rituals, and the north-eastern is for men and men-related rituals. The worship place for Mata Tirtha Aunsi (‘Mother Pilgrimage New Moon’) is located in Mata Tirtha in the south-western half of the valley, while the worship place for Gokarna Aunsi is located in the north-eastern half. This division is reflected in many aspects of the life in the Kathmandu Valley.[56]

South Korea[edit]

Regardless of age or gender, this day is also an opportunity to reaffirm that traditional filial piety is a crucial norm and cultural value in modern society. The ceremony to mark Parents’ Day as an anniversary and put on carnations stems from a Christian culture. As Western religions and cultures entered, this holiday, which was introduced together, became the most traditional holiday combined with Confucian filial piety in the process of establishing itself.

Taiwan[edit]
In Taiwan, Father’s Day is not an official holiday, but is widely observed on 8 August, the eighth day of the eighth month of the year. In Mandarin Chinese, the pronunciation of the number eight is bā, and the pronunciation is very similar to the character 爸 (bà), which means «pa» or «dad». The eighth day of the eighth month (bā-bā) is a pun for dad (爸爸; bàba). Taiwan, therefore, sometimes refer to 8 August as «Bābā Holiday» as a pun for «Dad’s Holiday» (爸爸節) or the more formal «Father’s Day» (父親節).[64]
Thailand[edit]
In Thailand, Father’s Day is observed on 5 December, the birthday of the late King Bhumibol Adulyadej (Rama IX).[30] In Thailand, Father’s Day, as well as Mother’s Day, are national public holidays. Traditionally, Thais celebrate by giving their father or grandfather a canna flower (ดอกพุทธรักษา, Dok Buddha Raksa), which is considered a masculine flower; however, this is not as commonly practiced today. Thai people will wear yellow on this day to show respect for the late king, because yellow is the color of the day for Monday, the day King Bhumibol Adulyadej was born. Thais flood the Sanam Luang, a massive park in front of the palace, to watch the king give his annual speech, and often stay until the evening when there is a national ceremony. Thais will light candles and show respect to the king by declaring their faith. This ceremony happens in almost every village in Thailand, and even overseas at Thai organizations.[65]
It first gained nationwide popularity in the 1980s as part of a campaign by Prime Minister Prem Tinsulanonda to promote Thailand’s royal family.[30] Mother’s Day is celebrated on the birthday of Queen Sirikit,[30] 12 August.

In 1950, they introduced «la Fête des Pères», which would take place every third Sunday of June (following the American example). Their slogan «Nos papas nous l’ont dit, pour la fête des pères, ils désirent tous un Flaminaire» (Our daddies told us, for Father’s Day, they all want a Flaminaire). In 1952, the holiday was officially decreed. A national Father’s Day committee was set up to give a prize for fathers who deserved it most (originally, candidates were nominated by the social services of each town hall’s/mayor’s office); This complements la Fête des Mères (Mother’s Day) which was made official in France in 1928 and added to the calendar in Vichy in 1941.[76]
Germany[edit]
Hiking tour on Father’s Day with smaller wagons.
In Germany, Father’s Day (Vatertag) is celebrated differently from other parts of the world.[77] It is always celebrated on Ascension Day (the Thursday forty days after Easter), which is a federal holiday. Regionally, it is also called gentlemen’s day, Herrentag. It is a tradition for groups of males (young and old but usually excluding pre-teenage boys) to do a hiking tour with one or more smaller wagons, Bollerwagen, pulled by manpower. In the wagons are wine or beer bottles (according to the region) and traditional regional food, Hausmannskost. Many men use this holiday as an opportunity to get drunk.[77] According to the Federal Statistical Office of Germany, alcohol-related traffic accidents treble on this day.[78] The tradition of Father’s Day is especially prevalent in Eastern Germany.[77]
These traditions are probably rooted in Christian Ascension Day’s processions to the farmlands, which has been celebrated since the 18th century.[79][80] Men would be seated in a wooden cart and carried to the village’s plaza, and the mayor would award a prize to the father who had the most children, usually with a big piece of ham.[79] In the late 19th century the religious component was progressively lost, especially in urban areas such as Berlin, and groups of men organized walking excursions with beer and ham.[79] By the 20th century, alcohol consumption had become a major part of the tradition.[79][81] Many people will take the following Friday off work, and some schools are closed on that Friday as well; many people then use the resulting four-day-long weekend for a short vacation.

Australia[edit]
In Australia, Father’s Day is celebrated on the first Sunday of September, which is the first Sunday of spring in Australia. Most families present fathers with gifts and cards, and share a meal. It is not a public holiday.
The idea of Father’s Day wasn’t initially well received in Australia in the 1910s and 1920s. Many thought it was either unnecessary or undermined a father’s assumed “supremacy” as head of the household. Newspapers at the time printed satirical poems and critical editorials of the new American tradition.[111] Father’s Day was originally observed in June, matching the USA date, with church services and the wearing of a red flower.[112] In June 1925, Janet Heyden of Sydney (who also advocated for Mother’s Day celebrations in Australia) began collecting donations to bring cheer to elderly men in nursing homes. While Mother’s Day became instantly popular, it wasn’t until the 1930s that Father’s Day came to be popularly celebrated in Australia on the first Sunday in September. The Father’s Day Council of Australia was established in 1957 and continues to honor distinguished fathers with an annual Australian Father of the Year award. Father’s Day traditions in Australia include school crafts with handmade gifts and cards from younger children, taking dad out for lunch, BBQs, and outdoor family activities. Public schools often hold a Father’s Day gift stall with inexpensive presents for fathers, grandfathers, carers, or other role-models.

The Father’s Day Council of Victoria also annually recognizes fathers in the Victorian Father of the Year Award.[113]

The day was celebrated for the first time in 1958, on the third Sunday of June, but it was not included in the school calendars due to pressure from several groups.[119]
Schools in the Mendoza Province continued to celebrate Father’s Day on 24 August, and in 1982 the provincial governor passed a law declaring Father’s Day in the province to be celebrated on that day.[119]

Каждый из нас знает, когда отмечают День матери, а вот День отца менее известен. Между тем этот праздник насчитывает столетнюю историю. Во многих странах уже сложились свои традиции. В России же они только формируются. Но было бы несправедливым не отметить роль второго родителя в воспитании детей.
Когда отмечается День отца в России и мире в 2023 году
У торжества есть несколько дат.
Большинство стран мира отмечают День пап в третье воскресенье лета — в 2023 году это 18 июня. А вот в России День отца отмечают в третье воскресенье октября — соответствующий указ подписал президент России в 2021 году. Поэтому российские папы отметят свой официальный день в 2023 году 15 октября.
История праздника
Началось все в далеком 1909 году в американском городе Спокан в штате Вашингтон. На церковной службе по случаю Дня матери местная жительница Сонора Луиза Смарт Додд задумалась — почему нет подобного праздника для отцов. Мать самой Соноры умерла после рождения шестого ребенка. Детей воспитывал отец, Уильям Джексон Смарт, ветеран Гражданской войны. Он стал для своих детей любящим и заботливым родителем и примером для подражания. Женщина создала петицию, в которой расписала, насколько важна роль отца в семье. Местные власти поддержали инициативу. Празднование должно было пройти 5 июня, в день рождения Уильяма Смарта. Но к назначенной дате не успели окончить все приготовления, поэтому праздник перенесли на 19 число. Вскоре идею подхватили и другие города. Ее поддержал даже президент США Калвин Кулидж. Политик заявил, что подобный праздник только укрепит связь отцов с детьми, и лишним уж точно не будет.
В 1966 году другой президент США, Линдон Джонсон, сделал этот день национальным праздником. Именно тогда утвердилась и дата — третье воскресенье июня. Постепенно этот День отца распространился по миру. Сейчас его отмечают в более, чем 30-ти странах, включая Великобританию, Канаду, Францию.
В Россию День отца пришел недавно, и получил официальный статус 4 октября 2021 года вместе с соответствующим Указом Владимира Путина.
Интересно, что в некоторых регионах этот день уже много лет как был утвержден законодательно. В числе первопроходцев Череповец, Новосибирск, Волгоградская, Липецкая, Курская и Ульяновская области. В некоторых регионах День отца отмечают в другие даты. Волгоград, например, с 2008 года почитает всех пап 1 ноября, Алтайский край — в последнее воскресенье апреля (с 2009 года).
Традиции праздника
Первое празднование Дня отца в России состоялось в 2014 году. В этот год в Москве прошел фестиваль «Папа Фест». С этого времени он проходит ежегодно не только в столице, но и Новосибирске, Калининграде и Казани. Также в этот день в городах устраиваются квесты и праздничные гуляния. А региональные администрации присуждают денежные премии многодетным отцам.
В других странах есть свои традиции. С особым размахом праздник отмечают в Финляндии. Днем принято ходить на кладбище, почтить память умерших мужчин. А уже вечером домочадцы собираются за праздничным столом, поют песни, устраивают танцы.
В Австралии День отца — повод выбраться на природу. Считается, что пикники укрепляют семейные узы и приносят в семью счастье.
В странах Балтии в детских садах и школах ребятишки мастерят аппликации и другие поделки и дарят своим папам и даже дедушкам.
В Италии День отца является главным праздником итальянских мужчин. Традиционные подарки — парфюм или бутылка дорогого вина.
В Японии переименовали праздник в «День мальчиков». Жители страны восходящего солнца считают, что мужественность надо прививать с раннего детства. И будущим самураям в этот день дарят мечи, ножи и другие орудия защиты.

- Италия, Испания, Португалия — 19 марта, день святого Иосифа.
- Дания — 5 мая.
- Южная Корея — 8 мая.

Что подарить папе в День отца
Пусть это будет именной подарок. Например, орден «Самому лучшему папе на свете». Или халат с надписью на спине «Лучший в мире папа». Уверены, эти вещи всегда будут поднимать настроение вашему отцу.
Портмоне. Это самый настоящий мужской аксессуар — как сумочка для женщины. Туда мужчины складывают не только деньги, но и пластиковые карты и даже телефон. Поэтому портмоне у представителей сильного пола лишними не бывают.
Родословная книга. Для пап в возрасте. Пусть отец создаст ваше семейное древо. Увлечете его интересным делом, как минимум.
Массажная накидка. Врачи давно доказали, что эта штука позволяет нормализовать обменные процессы и кровообращение, укрепить иммунную систему, устранить боли в спине. Позаботьтесь о здоровье вашего отца. Кто, если не вы?

В третье воскресенье октября в России отмечается День отца. Он был учрежден указом президента РФ от 4 октября 2021 года. В 2022 году эта дата приходится на 16 октября.День отцов отмечается во многих странах мира. Впервые мысль об учреждении праздника пришла американке Соноре Смарт Додд в 1909 году в церкви во время службы, посвященной Дню матери. Ее отец, Уильям Джексон Смарт, овдовев второй раз, сам вырастил шестерых детей на небольшой ферме близ города Спокан в штате Вашингтон. Сонора Смарт Додд составила петицию, предлагая учредить новый праздник, и местные городские власти поддержали ее.Впервые День отцов был отмечен в родном городе Соноры Смарт Додд в 1910 году. Местные власти собирались устроить празднества 5 июня, в день рождения Уильяма Смарта, но времени на их подготовку не хватило, и праздник был перенесен на 19 июня. С годами идея распространилась. В 1916 году президент США Вудро Вильсон, подписавший декларацию об учреждении Дня матери, одобрил идею празднования дня отца, но так и не подписал декларацию.

В третье воскресенье октября в России отмечается День отца. Он был учрежден указом президента РФ от 4 октября 2021 года. В 2022 году эта дата приходится на 16 октября.
День отцов отмечается во многих странах мира. Впервые мысль об учреждении праздника пришла американке Соноре Смарт Додд в 1909 году в церкви во время службы, посвященной Дню матери. Ее отец, Уильям Джексон Смарт, овдовев второй раз, сам вырастил шестерых детей на небольшой ферме близ города Спокан в штате Вашингтон. Сонора Смарт Додд составила петицию, предлагая учредить новый праздник, и местные городские власти поддержали ее.
Впервые День отцов был отмечен в родном городе Соноры Смарт Додд в 1910 году. Местные власти собирались устроить празднества 5 июня, в день рождения Уильяма Смарта, но времени на их подготовку не хватило, и праздник был перенесен на 19 июня.
С годами идея распространилась. В 1916 году президент США Вудро Вильсон, подписавший декларацию об учреждении Дня матери, одобрил идею празднования дня отца, но так и не подписал декларацию. В 1924 году президент США Калвин Кулидж объявил мероприятие общенациональным.
В 1966 году президент США Линдон Джонсон подписал прокламацию, объявляющую третье воскресенье июня Днем отцов. В 1972 году президент Ричард Никсон официально узаконил празднование Дня отца в США.
В третье воскресенье июня своих пап чествуют в 40 странах. Помимо США праздник отмечается в Великобритании, Ирландии, Канаде, Франции, Аргентине, Индии, Мексике и др. В Австралии и Новой Зеландии День отца отмечается в первое воскресенье сентября, в Бразилии – во второе воскресенье августа.
В Литве День отца отмечается в первое воскресенье июня, в Финляндии, Швеции, Эстонии День отца – во второе воскресенье ноября.
В некоторых странах, таких, как Боливия и Испания, отцов поздравляют 19 марта в День Святого Иосифа – земного отца Иисуса Христа.
В России День отца отмечался с начала 2000-х в ряде регионов: с 2002 года этот праздник начали отмечать в Череповце, с 2003 года – в Новосибирске, а с 2006 года – в Волгоградской, Липецкой, Курской и Ульяновской областях, с 2011 года – в Петербурге, с 2014 года – в Москве.

Ряд задач по поддержанию семьи и воспитанию детей – это функция отцов (Фото: Pressmaster, по лицензии Shutterstock.com)
В России, начиная с 2021 года, отмечается важный семейный праздник – День отца, официально установленный Указом Президента РФ № 573 от 4 октября 2021 года «в целях укрепления института семьи и повышения значимости отцовства в воспитании детей». Дата его празднования – третье воскресенье октября.
До этого времени свой «официальный» день был только у российских мам, он отмечается в последнее воскресенье ноября, начиная с 1998 года. А вот День отца до 2021 года не имел официального статуса, хотя инициативы об учреждении такого праздника звучали не раз. К тому же в ряде российских регионов День отца отмечали на местном уровне уже несколько лет.
Например, в Волгоградской области его праздновали 1 ноября, в Архангельской – в третье воскресенье ноября, в Вологодской – во второе воскресенье декабря, в Липецкой – в феврале. В рамках празднования проводились различные семейные фестивали, традиционные конкурсы «отцовского мастерства» и награждение отцов, которые достойно воспитывают детей. Так, в Липецкой области, в рамках празднования Дня отца вручается почётный знак «За верность отцовскому долгу» и денежная премия.
Поэтому представители общественности и политики не раз выступали с инициативой установить День отца на официальном уровне. Вновь этот вопрос летом 2018 года подняла глава комитета Государственной Думы РФ по вопросам семьи, женщин и детей Тамара Плетнева, которая внесла в Госдуму проект закона, предлагающего установить праздник День отца и отмечать его в последнюю субботу октября. Однако он был отклонен.
К идее вернулись весной 2021 года, когда на встрече с Президентом РФ Владимиром Путиным Уполномоченный по правам ребенка Анна Кузнецова рассказала о деятельности Совета отцов и о традициях празднования Дня отцов в регионах России. В итоге, Минтруд России вынес на общественное обсуждение предложение отмечать День отца, поддержанное Президентом страны, который и подписал соответствующий Указ об установлении праздника.
Таким образом «несправедливость» была устранена и праздник, посвященный отцам, получил официальный общероссийский статус, наравне с другими семейными праздниками – Днём матери, Днём защиты детей и Днём семьи, любви и верности.
Такой шаг, по мнению законотворцев, способствует сохранению традиционных семейных ценностей и подчеркивает роль мужчин в воспитании детей. Привлечение внимания к теме отцовства – важный момент семейной политики, где полноценная семья – это папа, мама, дети. Ведь в процессе деторождения принимают участие как мать, так и отец. Ряд задач по поддержанию семьи и воспитанию детей – это функция отцов. Особенно это чувствуется в многодетных семьях, где роль отца – базовая основа большой семьи, а личный пример – гарантия того, что ребенок станет достойным гражданином общества.
Напомним, что День отца празднуется и в других странах, в большинстве – это третье воскресенье июня.
