Press Day in Belarus

Press Day in Belarus recognizes journalists, editors, proofreaders and others who produce newspapers and magazines. It celebrates the work behind the printed page, from gathering information to preparing a finished issue for readers.

How it is celebrated: newsrooms congratulate staff and veteran colleagues, while professional gatherings and award ceremonies recognize their work. Publication displays trace changes in newspaper design and content, and reader meetings offer a look inside editorial life.

The date comes from Soviet Press Day, which commemorated the first issue of Pravda in 1912.
