Pillow Fight!

It’s that time of year again. I’m sure you’ve marked your calendars and are anxiously awaiting the official day when you can join other people in your town or city to bash the heck out of each other with…. pillows.

Yes, I am indeed talking about the 9th annual International Pillow Fight Day, which, this year, falls on Saturday, April 7th. You didn’t know there was such a day? Well, lucky you’re reading this. Now you can join in.

Each year, on the first Saturday of April, pillow fight events are organized around the world. You can find out whether there’s one in your area at the official International Pillow Fight Day 2018 Facebook page. If not, you can organize one yourself!

Traditionally, pillow fights have been the domain of young kids at sleepovers and slumber parties. Those little, impromptu, fluffy fights have nothing on the large, outdoor, public pillow fights where you get to fling your pillow not only at your siblings, cousins and best friends, but also anyone else who gets in your path. And being an adult is no obstacle!

If reading about going to one of these events doesn’t get you in the spirit, maybe this will.

Happy Pillow Fight Day!
