When is Children's Day celebrated in 2025 and why is the date maintained

This year, Children's Day will be celebrated on Sunday, August 17, coinciding with the holiday for the Passage to Immortality of  General José de San Martín.

Initially,  there had been consideration of moving the date forward due to a possible conflict with the national PASO elections, but after the suspension of the primary elections, it was decided to maintain the tradition of the third Sunday in August.

CAIJ clarified that the decision is not based on commercial reasons, but rather on the goal of facilitating the organization of family celebrations during a long weekend.

"Children's Day has a very strong cultural and emotional value for many generations of Argentines," stated the Chamber.

It is worth noting that since 2012, Children's Day in Argentina has been observed on the third Sundayof August, after having been celebrated for decades on the second.
