Disco Day
July 2
National Disco Day is celebrated in New Zealand every year on July 2. The day is a salute to all things disco, from the music and dancing to the entire culture of the 1970s. National Disco Day is an unofficial observance that focuses on the genre of dance music that wielded significant influence on modern music, developing into an entire subculture over the 1960s and 1970s in America. While the popularity of disco declined in America around the 1980s, it only gained popularity in the rest of the world, including New Zealand.
