#InternationalPodcastDay
Purpose
International Podcast Day™ is September 30th and is an international celebration of the power of podcasts! The celebration is a great opportunity to connect with fellow podcasters, podcast listeners, podcast enthusiasts, and leaders in the podcasting industry. Help spread the word by telling your friends, sharing the celebration on your podcasts and social media feeds, and using #InternationalPodcastDay. There are several ways to get involved and plenty to benefit from by taking part in International Podcast Day. See our suggestions below. But first, we must all “Start The Conversation” and share the power of podcasts!
History
Just as podcasts and podcasting has evolved over the years, International Podcast Day has done the same. In 2014, National Podcast Day was celebrated. After quickly realizing the power of podcasts internationally, we rebranded into what we are today – International Podcast Day, September 30. Between 2015-2020, we live streams over 200 hours from nearly 100 nations featuring 350 podcasters to share their podcast journeys, personal stories, and expertise. In 2021, the team ended the live broadcasting. Let’s keep the celebration going year after year and continue to make our day amazing and spectacular.
