Revolution Day, (el Día de la Revolución) is celebrated every year in Mexico on November 20th. On this day, Mexicans remember and celebrate the Revolution which started in 1910 and lasted for about ten years.

The official date is November 20, but nowadays students and workers get the day off on the third Monday of November, no matter which date it falls on.
