Practical vexillology

[gfish]

I like flags. The household has quite a few, and we occasionally switches out which one is currently flying, more or less at random. What I want to build is an entire liturgical calendar of flag-relevant events, so they can be switched out every 2-3 weeks (on average).

For example, we have the EU flag to fly during Eurovision. Various pride flags in June, of course. And the UN flag for UN Day (Oct 24). I keep forgetting to buy an Esperanto flag for Zamenhof Day in December. And the French flag for Bastile Day. And NASA (or Apollo program) for July 20.

So I'm turning to you, the internet. What days that have a related flag should we be celebrating? Nothing is too minor, I promise you.

Richmond's flag, to be flown to indicate the household is eating sushi at the moment
New Orleans flag for Mardi Gras
Alternately, the Pancake Platoon flag for Shrove Tuesday, aka Pancake Day.
June 14 is flag day in the US and you should get a flag with a picture of an American flag on it.
The Isle of Man flag at the end of May. That's when their big race is but mostly I suggest this because their flag is freaking awesome. Also holy shit, what a coat of arms.
Girl Scout/Guide flag for thinking day (Feb 22)
White flag Dec 6 for the Ecole Polytechnique massacre / gendered violence memorial
Trans pride flag for TDOR
Canada Day is July 1! Celebrate yo' country's hat
