World Emoji Day is an unofficial holiday celebrated on 17 July.[1][2] The day is deemed a "global celebration of emoji"[3] and is celebrated with emoji events and product releases.[4] Celebrated annually since 2014,[5] NBC reported that the day was Twitter's top trending item on 17 July in 2015.[6]





Origins


World Emoji Day is "the brainchild of Jeremy Burge"[7] according to CNBC which stated that the "London-based founder of Emojipedia created it" in 2014.[8]

The New York Times reported that Burge created this on 17 July "based on the way the calendar emoji is shown on iPhones".[9] For the first World Emoji Day, Burge told The Independent "there were no formal plans put in place"[10] other than choosing the date. The Washington Post suggested in 2018 that readers use this day to "communicate with only emoji."[11]

In 2016, Google changed the appearance of Unicode character U+1F4C5 📅 CALENDAR[12] to display 17 July on Android, Gmail and Hangouts products.[13]

On World Emoji Day 2015, Pepsi launched PepsiMoji which included an emoji keyboard and custom World Emoji Day Pepsi cans and bottles.[14] These were initially released in Canada and expanded to 100 markets in 2016.[15]

In 2016, Sony Pictures Animation used World Emoji Day to announce T. J. Miller as the first cast member for The Emoji Movie,[16] Google released "a series of new emoji that are more inclusive of women from diverse backgrounds,"[17] and Emojipedia launched the first World Emoji Awards.[18] Other World Emoji Day announcements in 2016 came from Disney,[19] General Electric, Twitter, and Coca-Cola.[20][21]

In 2017, Apple celebrated World Emoji Day by announcing its new emojis on iOS,[22][23] London's Royal Opera House presented 20 operas and ballets in emoji form,[24] Google announced the end of its "blob emojis"[25] and winners of the World Emoji Awards[26] were announced[27] from the trading floor of the New York Stock Exchange and broadcast on Cheddar.[28]

In 2018, Kim Kardashian released her Kimoji fragrance line on World Emoji Day,[29][30] Apple previewed new emoji designs including redheads [31][32]and replaced executive photos on its corporate leadership page with emojis,[33] Google announced the return of "blob emojis" in sticker form,[34] and Facebook announced "700 million emojis are used in Facebook posts each day".[35]
