<What is "Ice Cream Day"?>
In 1964, the Tokyo Ice Cream Association designated May 9th as "Ice Cream Day" and started donating ice cream to facilities and hospitals in Tokyo, as well as holding various ice cream festivals at hotels. Since then, May 9th has been designated "Ice Cream Day" and events such as ice cream donations to welfare facilities and ice cream giveaways are held all over the country to promote ice cream.
