Philately Day

Philately Day in Israel, also known as Stamp Day (יום הבול), is a celebration within the stamp‑collecting community rather than a national public holiday. It is marked by the Israel Postal Company and philatelic organizations through the release of special commemorative stamps, covers, and cancellations, often tied to annual philatelic events or exhibitions. The day highlights themes related to postal history, art, culture, or anniversaries, aiming to promote the hobby of stamp collecting. There is no fixed official date for Philately Day; it has been observed on various dates over the years, with events and special stamp issues serving as the main form of celebration.
