What is National Friendship Day?

National Friendship Day gives people a chance to show appreciation and affection toward their friends. Distinct from the UN's global International Day of Friendship in July, this US observance encourages quality time, cards, and thoughtful gestures.

How to celebrate

Mark the day with a poster made in Dayfeed — pick your favourite photo as the background, share it to your story or group chat, and set a reminder so you never miss it next year.
