International Roma Day
April 8, 2024
8 April is International Roma Day, also known as Roma National Day. The day honours the memory of the first Roma Congress held in London in 1971, when the International Gypsy Committee was transformed into the International Romani Union (IRU). The Roma are not linked to a specific country, but are spread all over the world. Nevertheless, they are united by common symbols, of which the Roma National Day on 8 April is an important symbol of their community and cultural identity.
