Calendar of Geek Holidays and Nerdy Anniversaries
Every geek fandom has its own special days of celebration throughout the year. I’ve compiled a Google calendar to keep track of all these fabulous days to better plan out my upcoming nerd holidays and geek parties.
From character birthdays (like Hobbit Day for Frodo and Bilbo Baggins) to commemorating the day the Nintendo 64 was first released, my calendar is full of geek-tastic dates. Take a peak and feel free to add it to your own Google calendar so that you can get notifications of upcoming events. Here’s the URL: https://calendar.google.com/calendar/embed?src=lotv3avo78eqdg1inrs117t1vg%40group.calendar.google.com&ctz=America/Chicago
Here’s a straight agenda view for a quick look at all the days coming up next.
This calendar is by no means complete. If I’ve missed one of your favorite fandom holidays or geek anniversaries, please let me know in the comments below!
Which fandom day do you celebrate every year?!
