When Is National Chicken Day

Full USA Today Article Here

July 6, 2023

Just because there’s no known origin for National Fried Chicken Day doesn’t mean we can’t celebrate the made-up holiday this Thursday, July 6th.

The folks at the National Day Calendar, where you can track 365 days’ worth of celebratory dates such as National Popcorn Day (January 19) and National Graham Cracker Day (July 5), says it continues to research “the origins of this food holiday.”

Less challenging is finding a place to observe National Fried Chicken Day, as plenty of fast-food chains and restaurants have specials offering free food and discounts on wings, sandwiches and chicken meals. And, if you don’t want to leave the house, use your air fryer to commemorate the day on your own.

There are more chicken celebrations to come in July with National Chicken Finger Day (July 27) and National Chicken Wing Day (July 29).
