There is no official Father's Day in China. However, mainlanders are used to taking the third Sunday in June as Father's Day. Taiwan Province Province is scheduled for August 8th every year, also known as "August 8th Festival".

The origin of Father's Day in China;

Father's Day is not a holiday, and China also has its own Father's Day. The origin of Father's Day in China can be traced back to the Republic of China. On August 8th, 1945, Shanghai launched a celebration of Father's Day, and the citizens responded immediately. After War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression's victory, celebrities from all walks of life in Shanghai jointly wrote to the Shanghai Municipal Government, requesting the central government to designate August 8 as National Father's Day.

On Father's Day, people wear flowers to show their respect and yearning for their fathers. On August 6th, 1945, Shanghai Shenbao published the origin of 1988 Father's Day. The article said: The United States initiated the establishment of Mother's Day to commemorate the wives and mothers of soldiers killed in the European war.

Now, China should also set up its own Father's Day. Because the word "father" is the same as "August 8" and the pronunciation of "August 8" is the same as "father", we appeal to Shanghai residents to celebrate "Father's Day on August 8".
