The United Kingdom is no stranger to the fame of DC’s caped crusader, Batman. As with many celebrations of this nature, there is no singular source that can be traced as its origins. It seems to have sprung up spontaneously, although arguably with some help from DC, around the world.
When is Batman Day in the United Kingdom?
Saturday, September 18, 2021
September has been the traditional month to celebrate Batman. This year, the day falls on the 18th of September with celebrations planned for the UK and around the world. On this day, there will be celebrations across the UK in the form of getting dressed up as Batman, and going to events where the caped crusader and his sidekick, Robin, will be the major theme.
By having the day on September 18th around the world, it ensures that Batman will be celebrated all day long in one form or another. Many will gather to read the comics, watch the animated series, television shows, serials, and movies that feature Batman.
For this Batman Day, there will be a special Batman shirt for those to wear on Jeans for Genes Day. This is a special day that raises awareness of genetic disorders, providing a popular platform to help people become aware and address the issue as they can. For those who suffer from genetic disorders, Batman Day becomes a special day to have their needs put to the forefront, so more people can become aware of what their condition is all about.
Batman Day in the United Kingdom will be like many that are celebrated at the same time around the world. The gatherings at comic shops, festivals, and events across the UK will ensure that this year it will be one to remember.
