When is Father's Day?
In Ireland and the UK, Father’s Day is celebrated on the third Sunday of June, a time to celebrate the dads and paternal figures who mean the world to us.
It’s the perfect opportunity to show your love and appreciation, whether that’s with a thoughtful card, a special gift, or simply spending time together. However you choose to mark the occasion, make sure Dad feels as special as he is.
Father’s Day: Where It Started & How It’s Celebrated Today
Father’s Day may have begun across the Atlantic, but it has become a cherished tradition in Ireland and the UK. The idea of Father’s Day as we know it today originated in the USA in 1910, thanks to Sonora Smart Dodd, who wanted to recognise fathers just as Mother’s Day honoured mothers. Over time, the tradition spread, and by 1972, it was officially recognised in the USA. Ireland and the UK followed suit, adopting the same date to celebrate fatherhood.
Though not a public holiday, Father’s Day holds a special place for many families, bringing them together for meals, meaningful gestures, and creating lasting memories that remind us why dads deserve a special day. And don’t forget the other father figures who’ve played a special role—uncles, grandfathers, stepdads, and mentors all deserve to be celebrated!
A Little Indulgence for the Man Who Does It All
No matter where or when it’s celebrated, Father’s Day is all about love, gratitude, and those little moments that mean the most. And what better way to show it and wish your dad a Happy Father's Day than with Lily O'Brien's Father's Day gifts - the perfect way to sweeten his day?
