June – Changeable Dates

Here are a few examples of national holidays with changing dates in June:

1. Corpus Christi (Christian countries): Corpus Christi is a Christian holiday that celebrates the Holy Eucharist and honors the real presence of Jesus Christ in the consecrated bread and wine. The date of Corpus Christi changes each year, as it is observed on the Thursday following Trinity Sunday, which falls 60 days after Easter.
2. Father’s Day (Many countries): Father’s Day is a celebration honoring fathers and fatherhood. The date of Father’s Day varies between countries, but in many places, including the United States and Canada, it is observed on the third Sunday of June.
3. Whit Monday or Pentecost Monday (Christian countries): Whit Monday, also known as Pentecost Monday, is a Christian holiday that commemorates the Holy Spirit’s descent upon the Apostles, as described in the New Testament. It is observed on the day after Pentecost, which falls 50 days after Easter. The date changes each year based on the lunar calendar.
4. Summer Bank Holiday (Ireland): The Summer Bank Holiday is a public holiday in Ireland that is observed on the first Monday of June each year, so the date changes annually.
5. Queen’s Birthday (Australia): The Queen’s Birthday is a public holiday in Australia that celebrates the birthday of Queen Elizabeth II. It is observed on the second Monday of June in most states and territories, so the date changes each year.

Please note that not all of these holidays fall in June every year. However, they are examples of holidays that may occur in June and have changing dates due to various factors such as the day of the week or religious calendar systems.
