Tirgan (Iranian)
July 3, 2024
This day is a mid summer ancient Iranian festival. It is celebrated by splashing water, dancing, reciting poetry, and serving traditional foods. The custom of tying rainbow-colored bands on wrists, which are worn for ten days and then thrown into a stream, is also a way to rejoice for children. (Wikipedia)
