Italy - Tricolor Day
Tricolor Day (Festa del Tricolore), also known as National Flag Day (Giornata Nazionale della Bandiera), is an Italian observance held on January 7 every year. Although it is not a public holiday, special events dedicated to the national flag of Italy are held throughout the country.
Tricolor Day was established in December 1996 and celebrated for the first time on January 7, 1997. As we’ve already said, it is not a public holiday, but there is an official celebration held in the city of Reggio Emilia, where the green, white and red tricolor was adopted as the flag of the Cispadane Republic, a short-lived republic established by Napoleon Bonaparte.
