World Party Day

World Party Day is a "synchronized global celebration" that aims to make the world a better place through positive action and the celebration of life. Also known as P-Day, its motto is "Party is the opposite of war." It was inspired by Flight: A Quantum Fiction Novel by Vanna Bonta. At the end of the novel, a mass celebration where all of the world is united takes place. Readers of the book took the idea to make a world party from it. The first celebration, which was known as World Party I, was held in 1996, a year after the book was released.

The day has been celebrated on every continent around the world. The theme of the celebrations is a "universal human right to fun, peace and life." Celebrating and partying is done in large or small gatherings, or even alone. Foods and music from all over the world are commonly enjoyed. Events are often organized, such as concerts, dance parties, and meditations. But, events are not necessary in order to celebrate. All that is required is a "synchronized mass awareness of the human right to enjoy life, and displaying hospitality."
