Friend's Day is Usually February 4th

Friends are an important part of life. They help us when we are feeling down, give us advice when needed, and make the good times that much better. What better way to celebrate those fantastic people in your life than to celebrate Friend’s Day? Friend’s Day is a holiday invented by Facebook that annually celebrates their launch. It was not advertised when it first began, instead users woke up in the morning and were greeted by a fun video when logging into the platform.

How Friend's Day is Celebrated

Now on the holiday you can custom create videos that allow you to give your friends rewards based on how many photos you two are tagged in together, the number of likes you give one another, and if you have any liked pages in common. Facebook created these videos for you to share with your friends, to celebrate the platform and how it helps to create and nourish friendships all across the globe.

Fun Ways To Celebrate Friend's Day

Log into the platform and create your own fun video to send to your friends
Repost that video to your other social platforms
Create your own cute video with similar attributes to share with your customers, maybe some of your best customers or based on your best products/services.

About 2.3 billion people around the world use Facebook and average about 41 minutes spent per day on the app. The premise of Facebook is to bring people together and this holiday invented by them is no exception.

Here’s what Mark Zuckerberg had to say about Friends Day:

“Today is a day to celebrate friends. It's also Facebook's birthday, but today isn't about celebrating us. It's about celebrating friendship.”
