Celebrate Canada’s Parks Day / National Parks Day
Canada's Parks Day or National Parks Day is celebrated on the third Saturday of July each year, which means this year it falls on July 19, 2025. It's a day to celebrate Canada's national, provincial, and territorial parks, and encourage people to enjoy and learn about these natural spaces.
