SUMMARY:Fars Dag (Father's Day) in Sweden
DESCRIPTION:Fars Dag – or Father’s Day – is celebrated on the second Sunday in November in Sweden\, instead of in June. Father’s Day in Sweden was initially celebrated in June\, but then various commercial organizations wanted it moved in 1931\, so it wouldn’t compete with Mother’s Day (Mors dag) on the last Sunday of May.
