About World Wildlife Day

World Wildlife 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 2027 it falls on a Wednesday; in 2028 it’s on Friday 3 March, and in 2029 on Saturday 3 March. Also in March 2027: National Bananacreme Pie Day (2 Mar), Flag Day (Bangladesh) (2 Mar) and World Engineering Day for Sustainable Development (4 Mar). From this page you can add it to your calendar, get an email before it, share the countdown, or show it full screen.

How we work out the date
It’s on 3 March every year, as set by the United Nations.
