National Bagel Day is celebrated every year on Jan. 15, and in 2024, it’s on a Monday. Although bagels can be traced back to Polish-Jewish communities as early as 1610, it wasn’t until the 20th century that the bagel maker was popularized and became a staple in American grocery stores.

National Bagel Day used to be on Feb. 9, which is also National Pizza Day, but Thomas Bagels’ efforts got bagels their day as of 2014.
