History of Vlogging Day

Vlogging Day was founded by Summer in the City which is the U.K’s largest online video festival. The festival has been known to bring a community of vloggers and fans together. Creators, professionals, and viewers in the YouTube community can make lasting connections with each other during Summer in the City.

The festival hosts several meet and greets, award ceremonies, live performances, expos, and discussion panels. A similar festival is held in the United States called Vidcon.

Vlogging day was established in the year 2018 as a result of the success of the Summer in the City festival. It is a way to encourage more people to share their knowledge and experiences with the world. A lot of people have received valuable information because of the work that vloggers have done.
