World Beatle Day is celebrated every July 10, commemorating the date in 1964 on which The Beatles returned to their country after their first tour of the United States, coinciding with the premiere of “A hard day’s night”, the first film of the British band.

However, internationally, fans of the band dispute which date to commemorate, since Beatles Day is also celebrated on January 16 and July 6.
For many, the day should be celebrated on the 16th of the first month of the year since on that date, but in 1957, the Cavern Club was inaugurated, the place where John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr made their debut.

For others, the celebration should be every July 6, since Lennon and McCartney, the founders of the band, met on that date.
In recent years, January 16 has gained international strength and is the date that most of the media and search engines recognize as “International Day of The Beatles”.
