TIME FOR A NEW CALENDAR! HERE ARE ALL OF THE HOLIDAYS IN JANUARY, LIKE APPLE
GIFTING DAY AND NATIONAL POPCORN DAY

There’s more than just New Year’s Day to celebrate in January.
 * Author:

 * Jan 1, 2024




Are you ready to rock 2024? January kicked off with a holiday—that would be New
Year’s Day, of course!—but there are loads of other things to celebrate during
the first month of the year besides… well, it being a new year! For some
religious groups, January marks the end of the holiday season with the
celebration of Epiphany. The month also has a day set aside to remember the
legacy of civil rights activist Martin Luther King, Jr. But did you know that
there is a special interest, hobby or person to honor and celebrate on every day
of the month? Here is a giant list of January holidays and observances in 2024!

These daily observances are dedicated to things as silly and random as National
Hangover Day (another observance on January 1 after spending New Year’s Eve
partying!), stickers, popcorn and kazoos! Some days in January are marked for
honoring professional groups, pediatricians and infusion (aka IV) nurses, and
others bring awareness to certain diseases or medical situations, like the first
successful cesarean section and leprosy.




There are also entire weeks in January that are dedicated to honoring and
celebrating different items or causes, like National Pizza Week and Snowmobile
Safety Awareness Week, and causes that are highlighted all month long, like
glaucoma awareness and human trafficking awareness and prevention.




Ready to find out what special days there are in January? We’ve put together a
hefty list for you to look over. Maybe there will be one or two that you didn’t
know about before that you’ll want to add to your own calendar to celebrate as
you kick off 2024!

WHAT MAJOR HOLIDAYS ARE IN JANUARY 2024?

In the United States, there are two major holidays celebrated in January: New
Year’s Day (January 1, 2024) and Martin Luther King, Jr. Day (January 15, 2024).
Both of these are federal holidays as decreed by Congress, which means that
banks and many businesses will be closed, including federally-run departments
like the post office.
