University of North Carolina Chapel Hill Dance “September”

Labor Day Holiday

 

International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers Ann Arbor | Local 252

The phrase “Lies, Damned Lies, and Statistics” is commonly attributed to Mark Twain, who popularized it in his writings. Specifically, Twain wrote in his 1906 autobiography, Chapters from My Autobiography, published in the North American Review: “Figures often beguile me, particularly when I have the arranging of them myself; in which case the remark attributed to Disraeli, ‘There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, and statistics,’ is peculiarly applicable.”

Twain credited the phrase to Benjamin Disraeli, the former British Prime Minister, but there’s no definitive evidence that Disraeli ever said or wrote it. Some scholars suggest the phrase may have originated elsewhere or been a common saying at the time. Despite this, Twain’s attribution to Disraeli is the most widely recognized source, and he’s often credited with popularizing it.

World Redhead Festival

The Redhead Days Festival, the largest and most well-known redhead festival, takes place in Tilburg, Netherlands, during the last full weekend of August. The next edition is scheduled for August 29-31, 2025, with the main event, including the famous group photo, on Sunday, August 31, 2025. Activities are held primarily in Spoorpark, Tilburg, and the city center.

Other redhead festivals include:

World Redhead Day: Celebrated globally on May 26, 2025, focusing on empowering redheads.

National Redhead Day (Love Your Red Hair Day): Observed on November 5, 2025, mainly in the U.S. and other countries, with events like photo contests and gatherings.

Redhead Celebration Day at Hellerick’s Family Farm in Doylestown, Pennsylvania, typically held in spring (exact 2025 date not specified).

Irish Redhead Convention in Dublin, Ireland, often held in August, though specific 2025 dates are not confirmed.

Note: Some sources, like posts on X, incorrectly mention Breda, Netherlands, or Dublin, Ireland, as the main Redhead Festival location. The primary event is now in Tilburg, and Dublin’s convention is separate. Always check official festival websites for the latest details, as dates can change.
