Father's Day is an annual celebration honoring fathers and paternal figures. It was inspired by Mother's Day and was first officially celebrated in the US in 1910. It became a US federal holiday in 1972 and has since spread to countries worldwide.

Father's Day is celebrated in the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, France, Japan, India, Brazil, Mexico, and Germany, among many others. While dates vary by country, the celebration of fathers and paternal figures is nearly universal.

Father's Day is not a public holiday in most countries. Schools and businesses remain open on this day. It is a cultural and commercial observance focused on family appreciation.

Father's Day traditions include giving fathers gifts such as ties, tools, sports equipment, or electronics, greeting cards, and treating them to meals or family outings. Common activities include barbecues, watching sports together, and outdoor recreation. Children often make handmade gifts and cards for their fathers.
