Haitian Flag Day (Haitian Creole: Jounen Drapo Ayisyen; French: La fête du drapeau haïtien) is a Haitian public holiday celebrating the creation of the flag of Haiti during the Haitian Revolution. The day is celebrated each year on 18 May, which is the anniversary of the date of the flag's adoption in 1803. The day is observed officially in Haiti, as well as in numerous cities of the United States that have a large Haitian population.[1][2]
