Father's Day in Belgium

Date: Father's Day in Belgium is celebrated on the second Sunday in June, unlike the Antwerp region, where it is observed on March 19th, coinciding with Saint Joseph's Day.

History: The tradition of celebrating Father's Day has its roots in the United States and was brought to Belgium through cultural exchange. It became popular as a way to honor fathers and father figures.

Traditions: On Father's Day, Belgians typically celebrate by showing appreciation for their fathers with various gestures such as:

  • Gift-giving: Children give gifts to their fathers, which can range from handmade items to purchased presents like clothing, gadgets, or tools.
  • Cards: It is common to give greeting cards with heartfelt messages.
  • Family Gatherings: Many families come together for a meal. This could be a special breakfast, a BBQ, or a dinner.
  • Outdoor Activities: Depending on the weather, families might engage in outdoor activities like hiking or playing sports.
  • Relaxation and Leisure: Fathers may take the day to relax and indulge in their hobbies or favorite pastimes.

While Father's Day is not an official public holiday in Belgium, it remains an important day for family celebrations and showing appreciation for fathers and father figures across the country.
