All Saintsâ Day: November 1. All Saintsâ Day is a public holiday in Portugal.

It is observed worldwide by Roman Catholics, Anglicans and Protestant churches.
In Spain, Italy and Portugal, Father's Day is celebrated on 19 March, which is the Feast of St. Joseph who is the patron saint of fathers. In Germany, Father's Day is celebrated on the same date as Ascension Day. Across Scandinavia, the tradition of a Father's Day was adopted in the 1930's. Originally the American date was used, but in 1949 the Nordic countries decided to move it to the second Sunday in November.
