Important dates

Offical Polyamory Calendar

Metamour day, 28 February; take Valentine’s day (14 Feb) double the love, and you get 28 Feb!

Solo Poly day, 11 March; there are other Singles days out there, notably 11/11 in Asia (less than two weeks from Polyamory day), and either 13 or 15 Feb, to flank Valentine’s day. The 11th March was invented by relationship counsellors to celebrate and empower those who identify as single. Sounds perfect for Solo Poly!

Bisexual Visibility Day, 23 September. First celebrated right here in South Africa!

Coming Out day, 11 October. This is an LGBT+ day. Polyamory is not LGBT+, but maybe this is the perfect day to be a good ally and come out. Especially if you’re poly and bi.

23 November, Polyamory Day, promulgated by the Canadians to mark the anniversary of polyamorous relationships in Canada. Caveat: you can be legally polyamorous in Canada, but don’t try to get married. That’s still legally dodgy.
