Batman Day is an annual event organized by DC Entertainment to celebrate and promote the popular superhero Batman. The first Batman Day was held on July 23, 2014, which coincided with the 75th anniversary of Batmans first appearance in Detective Comics in 1939. The day was chosen to align with San Diego Comic-Con, a major comic book convention. However, subsequent Batman Days have been observed on the third Saturday in September.
The establishment of Batman Day followed the celebration of the first Superman Day on June 12, 2013, which coincided with the release of Zack Snyder's "Man of Steel" film. The event is a collaboration between DC Comics, Warner Bros., and DC Entertainment.
On Batman Day, fans and comic enthusiasts celebrate their love for the Dark Knight, participating in various activities and events. The day offers an opportunity for fans to reconnect with Batman's adventures in various forms of media, including comic books, movies, television shows, and pop culture.
