Happy Yellow Day! Discover its origin and celebrate it at GF Victoria

Happy Yellow Day 2024! Don't you know that there is a day considered to be the happiest of the whole year? Just as there is the saddest day, known as 'Blue Monday' and celebrated in the month of January, now that we are entering June, and summer is coming, the famous 'Yellow Day' is also approaching.

June 20 is marked as one of the most optimistic days of the entire year, and with the arrival of the summer solstice, longer days and warmer nights, it seems that being happy and cheerful is much easier than the rest of the year.

Keep reading, here we tell you the origin of this happy yellow day and give you some ideas on how to celebrate it in style.

Happy Yellow Day: the origin of this optimistic day

It is no coincidence that June 20 is known as 'yellow day', as the emotional and psychological influence that certain meteorological, psychological and social factors have on people has been proven.

As for the weather, it can be said that the rise in temperatures and the greater number of daylight hours have a huge influence on people, due to the increase in serotonin, a hormone that improves our mood and generates feelings of well-being.

Psychological factors also have a huge influence, as it has been proven that the arrival of better temperatures and the possibility of doing more outdoor activities, especially in countries with colder winters, causes people to feel much happier.

In social terms, we could say that the increase in collective and mass activities, the end of classes, as well as the possibility of having vacations and enjoying the good weather, generates a feeling of satisfaction.

Activities to celebrate this special date

Now that you know this date, you may be looking for activities to celebrate this day in style, and thus, welcome the long-awaited summer. Here we tell you about some of the perfect activities to enjoy this season and enjoy the outdoors:

Outdoor sports

The arrival of summer means that many people are encouraged to enjoy the sun and good weather outdoors, practising different activities that range from running or doing yoga on the beach, to others, perfect for the more adventurous, such as abseiling, paddle surfing or snorkelling.

Celebrate festivities

If the happiest day of the year is June 20, just four days later we celebrate San Juan, a special night in which, between bonfires and swimming on the beach, we celebrate the long-awaited arrival of summer.

Go on excursions and discover natural treasures

One of the perfect activities to enjoy a happy yellow day is, without a doubt, a walk or excursion to enjoy the fresh air that nature offers. When it comes to Tenerife, the offer of trails, simpler or more difficult, in the different natural parks such as El Teide or Anaga is endless.
