June 2. National Leave the Office Early Day #LeaveTheOfficeEarlyDay
On National Leave the Office Early Day we celebrate the importance of work-life balance and prioritizing personal well-being.
As a brand, you can contribute to the celebration by allowing your employees to take the afternoon off, to showcase your company culture. Perhaps you can share tips about self-care and stress relief techniques or showcase how your products or services can enhance leisure time. Either way, your efforts will be deeply appreciated.
June 3. World Bicycle Day #WorldBicycleDay
June 3 is all about pedaling towards a healthier planet. While cycling promises an abundance of health benefits, it also contributes to the health of our environment by reducing carbon emissions. Help inspire your audience to hop on their bikes, explore their surroundings, and enjoy the freedom of two wheels, joining the global movement towards sustainable transportation options.
June 5. World Environment Day #WorldEnvironmentDay
Care to join the global movement for a greener future? Established by the UN, this annual event focuses on educating people about topics like pollution, climate change, deforestation, and overpopulation.
Seize the opportunity to inspire change, promote sustainable habits, and celebrate environmental stewardship on social media.

June 8. World Oceans Day #WorldOceansDay
World Oceans Day is a call to action for ocean advocacy and protecting our planet.

June 8. National Best Friends Day #BestFriendsDay
Be it a shared adventure, a belly laugh, or a quiet moment of understanding, our best friends fill our lives with warmth and joy. Don’t forget to spread the love and tag your brand’s best friends.
June 14. World Blood Donor Day #GiveBlood
This celebration carves out time for the world to thank all voluntary blood donors for their life-saving gifts of blood and to raise awareness about the need for volunteers.
June 16. Father’s Day #FathersDay
As Father's Day approaches, let's take a moment to recognize the fathers, grandfathers, and father figures who have shaped who we are.
Whether it's through their wisdom, humor, or unwavering support, fathers play a unique and invaluable role in our lives. Join the celebrations by sharing your favorite dad jokes or dad outfits.
June 20. First Day of Summer #FirstDayofSummer
In the northern hemisphere, June 20 officially marks the beginning of most people’s favorite season (we’re side-eyeing all the winder lovers). Whether it's sunny or not, the air is charged with energy, hope, and the compelling need to book a holiday.
June 21. International Yoga Day #InternationalYogaDay
Focus on your inner peace and balance, whether it means hosting and posting about a free yoga lesson your company provided for all its employees, or creating an infographic that highlights the benefits of yoga with your audience.
June 21. National Selfie Day #NationalSelfieDay
Is a selfie really a selfie if it’s not shared on social media? I didn’t think so either.
It’s as easy as taking out your phone and observing the holiday by taking a selfie and sharing it with your followers. The more the merrier!
June 21. World Music Day #WorldMusicDay
Founded in 1982, World Music Day is a global celebration of the power of music to unite and inspire. With hundreds of participating cities worldwide, your content is guaranteed to strike a chord with an audience no matter what you post.
June 21. National Take Your Dog to Work Day #TakeYourDogToWorkDay
This one’s for the pet lovers.
Whether you’re working from home, the office, or a WeWork, this unofficial holiday presents the perfect opportunity for you to share your workspace with your dog – and then to post about it, obviously. They’re not called man’s best friend for no reason.

June 27. National Sunglasses Day #NationalSunglassesDay
Now that the first day of summer is behind us, it's time to embrace the sunshine in style with your favorite pair of sunglasses. But remember, protection is key, so don't forget your sunglasses case (to prevent scratches). And, more importantly, don't forget your sunscreen.
June 30. Social Media Day #SMDay
Congratulations! You’re overdue a pat on the back (maybe accompanied by some prosecco) for your incredible social media achievements. As we venture into the second half of the year, give a shoutout to your community for their support and take a moment to reflect on your brand's journey to mark Social Media Day.
