June 13 Holidays

National Rosé Day is observed on the second Saturday of June to celebrate rosé wine — produced by limiting the contact of grape skins during red fermentation — a category whose global sales doubled between 2002 and 2022. World Gin Day was established to celebrate gin in all its forms, from London Dry to new-wave botanicals — observed on the second Saturday of June and tied to the resurgence of artisan distilling. International Albinism Awareness Day was proclaimed by the UN General Assembly in 2014 to raise awareness for the human rights violations and discrimination faced by people with albinism worldwide. Feast of St. Anthony is the Catholic feast of Saint Anthony of Padua, the 13th-century Portuguese Franciscan friar venerated as the patron saint of lost things, poor people, and travelers — celebrated in Lisbon as the city’s biggest festival. Rosé, juniper berries, a UN proclamation, and a lost thing found.
