Father’s Day in the U.S. is Sunday, June 20.
Father’s Day recognizes fathers, fatherhood and paternal bonds in general, as well as the positive contributions that they make to society.
The nation’s first Father’s Day was celebrated on June 19, 1910, in the state of Washington. However, it was not until 1972–58 years after President Woodrow Wilson made Mother’s Day official–that the day honoring fathers became a nationwide holiday in the United States. Father’s Day 2020 occurs on Sunday, June 21.
