Global Beatles Day


 

Global Beatles Day (also known as World Beatles Day) is an annual holiday held on 25 June each year to commemorate the legacy and cultural impact of the English rock band, the Beatles. The date, 25 June, was chosen to commemorate the date that the Beatles participated in the BBC show Our World in 1967, performing "All You Need Is Love” broadcast to an international audience. The holiday was created and first celebrated in 2009 by Faith Cohen, who called it "a thank you or love letter" to the band.
