About World Soil Day

World Soil Day is one of the international days on the United Nations list. The UN uses these days to draw attention to an issue and to what people around the world are doing about it.

In 2026 it falls on a Saturday; in 2027 it’s on Sunday 5 December, and in 2028 on Tuesday 5 December. This time it falls at the weekend; some countries move the day off to a weekday when that happens. Also in December 2026: Hanukkah (4 Dec), International Volunteer Day (5 Dec) and National Day (Thailand) (5 Dec).
