When is Gay Uncles Day?

Are you a #GayUncle?
Gay Uncles Day is a thing, and definitely something worth celebrating.
Since around 2016, Gay Uncles Day has been widely celebrated on the second Sunday in August – it’s a great way of recognising the diversity of our families, and also the important contribution that queer men make to family life.
That means that in 2023, Gay Uncles Day will be observed on Sunday 13 August. It probably should be a national holiday, right?
How will you celebrate?
Just to remind everyone how great it is to have a Gay Uncle, here’s some of our favourite Instagays who are showing us all how to be a #GayUncle.
