When is Thanksgiving day in 2024?
The American Thanksgiving holiday dates back to the early 17th century, when Pilgrims and Native Americans shared a harvest feast and gave thanks. Celebrated on the fourth Thursday of November, this year’s Thanksgiving falls on November 28th. It’s a day when loved ones gather to enjoy a festive meal which traditionally features turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes and, of course, a selection of desserts.
