As we navigate through the year, it is essential to stay informed about upcoming holidays to plan events, vacations, product launches, and marketing strategies effectively. The third quarter of 2024 is fast approaching. Let us look at the major holidays and observances anticipated for the months of July, August, and September across several countries including the United States (US), Canada (CAN), the United Kingdom (UK), Australia (AUS), New Zealand (NZ), and France (FR).

NOTE: If you sell worldwide, watch for holidays in other countries and not just your home country. Sometimes, the same holiday is celebrated in multiple countries but on different dates, meaning that one design can be used multiple times during a year.

July 2024

  • July 1 – Canada Day (CAN)
  • July 4 – Independence Day (US)
  • July 14 – Bastille Day (FR)
  • July 15 – National Respect Day (CAN)

September 2024

  • September 1 – Father’s Day (AUS, NZ)
  • September 2 – Labor Day (US)
  • September 2 – Labour Day (CAN)
  • September 8 – Grandparents’ Day (US, CAN)
  • September 27 – Native American Day (US)

Other Events

In addition to the standard holidays, it is a good idea to be aware of other fun or major events during the time period. The Summer Olympics begin on July 26th, and Oktoberfest starts on September 21st. The Autumnal Equinox for the Northern Hemisphere “falls” on September 22nd.

Remember to be mindful of copyrights and trademarks when creating merchandise for holidays, observances, and special events. In the United States, these can be researched online on the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO)’s site.

Prepare Now

As the third quarter is just around the corner, now is the time to be preparing items for any holidays or events during this time. Even if the holidays do not fit into your shop’s niche of merchandise, these dates provide great additions to your marketing, allowing you to be part of the holiday buzz and trending posts and hashtags on social media.

By tailoring your products and marketing strategies to the holidays of the third quarter of the year, you can make the most of these events and the shoppers celebrating them. Happy selling!
