When is National Mall Walking Day?

Every year on October 6.

What is National Mall Walking Day?

National Mall Walking Day invites everyone to step outside and reconnect with movement, nature, and history. Started in 2019 by the Shopkick app, the day encourages casual strolls in scenic places — the National Mall in Washington, D.C. is the flagship — with its monuments, open lawns, and shaded paths. It's not about steps or pace; it's about the simple, restorative act of walking somewhere meaningful, whether alone, with coworkers, or with family.

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.
