Suffolk Day is an annual celebration of the county of Suffolk. The day was instigated by Mark Murphy from BBC Radio Suffolk, who was inspired after noticing that Carol Kirkwood made weather reports with a greater focus on Yorkshire on August 1.

It is celebrated every year on June 21 - this is the longest day of the year in the Northern Hemisphere.
