What is International Talk Like a Pirate Day?

International Talk Like a Pirate Day is a parodic holiday created in 1995 by John Baur and Mark Summers. On this day, people are encouraged to talk in the stereotypical language of pirates — 'Ahoy!', 'Shiver me timbers!', and 'Arr!'

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.
