spirit day

School pride event

Spirit day is a designated day, typically at schools or workplaces, when participants dress according to a theme to show unity or enthusiasm.

Schools hold spirit days before homecoming or pep rallies: Tuesday is pajama day for spirit week.

The term also refers specifically to a day in October when people wear purple to support LGBTQ youth and oppose bullying.
