World Calendar Day
World Good Rain Day
A day for the rain people hope for, prepare for, complain about, celebrate, and remember.
Regional/Cultural Day
World Tourism Day
The day is observed in Nigeria with events promoting the country's tourist attractions, and the focus is on the natural beauty of Nigeria (the Yankari Game Reserve, the Obudu Mountain Resort, the Zuma Rock, the Olumo Rock, and the Nike Art Gallery). The tourism industry in Nigeria is underdeveloped (the country receives only 1.5 million tourists per year), and the day is a reminder of the potential that has not yet been realized.

Nigeria Receipt Drawer Day
A day for the proof of purchase nobody can find until the warranty is over.
