Constitution Day is observed in many countries, but it refers to different documents and dates. Spain celebrates it on 6 December, the anniversary of the referendum of 1978 in which voters approved the current constitution after the end of the Franco dictatorship. Andorra marks 14 March, the date of the 1993 referendum that approved its first written constitution and made it a parliamentary co-principality. Japan's Constitution Memorial Day on 3 May recalls the day in 1947 when its postwar constitution took effect.
In Norway, Constitution Day is 17 May, the biggest national celebration of the year, with children's parades in towns and villages, brass bands, flags and people in national costume called bunad. The date recalls the signing of the Norwegian constitution at Eidsvoll in 1814, and Svalbard follows the Norwegian date. Poland has its own holiday for its 1791 constitution on 3 May. The celebrations in Norway start early in the morning with flags and breakfast and continue into the night.
