June 2, 2026, 80 years.
Today is Italian Republic Day (Festa della Repubblica) — celebrating 80 years since June 2, 1946, when Italians voted to become a republic. Historic moment: it was the first time Italian women could vote!
From the military parade in Rome to the Frecce Tricolori painting the sky with green, white, and red, it’s a day of democracy, freedom, and national pride.
