There are a few different Boys' Day observances depending on the context:
- International Day of the Boy Child is celebrated on May 16 each year. It focuses on boys' well-being and challenges but is not officially recognized by the UN.
- In Germany and Austria, the "Boys' Day" or "Jungen-Zukunftstag" is a nationwide event aimed at career orientation and life planning for boys, focusing on professions where men are underrepresented. This day usually takes place on the fourth Thursday in April. In 2025, this will be on April 24.
So depending on whether you mean the international recognition day or the German-speaking countries' career orientation day, Boys' Day falls either on May 16 or the fourth Thursday of April. In 2025, that is April 24 for the latter.
