The nation’s
first Father’s Day was celebrated on June 19, 1910, in the state of Washington.
In 1972, 58 years after President Woodrow Wilson made Mother’s Day an official holiday,
America honored and officially named the third Sunday of each June as Father's Day, and it
too became a national holiday in the United States. Father’s Day 2023
will be celebrated on Sunday, June 18th.
