About Labor Day 2025
This annual Doodle celebrates Labor Day. Held on the first Monday of September every year, this federal holiday honors the achievements of the American workforce both past and present.
Labor Day celebrates the enduring American spirit of building — whether it’s the homes that shelter us or the vital infrastructure that connects our nation. It's a day to reflect on the work of everyone who contributes to our society, from farmers to first responders to automakers.
Labor Day festivities typically involve backyard parties with barbecue staples, lively parades with impressive floats and marching bands, and other outdoor activities to relish the last days of summer.
