 (Note: Ceremony is the day after a couple's anniversary. This is why dates vary.  But, this date is listed on my site due to the last qualified ceremony on June 20, 1751. So, for over 103 years, June 20th was considered Flitch of Bacon Day.  Then the  ceremony was revived in 1854.   But, the ceremony dates varied with each couple. Some were held in August.The ceremony is not annual..  But, I'm keeping June 20 as the official Flitch of Bacon Day since it was the traditional date for 103 years. So, you can celebrate on June 20 every year, or celebrate every four years  on the date set up by the town of Dunmow in England where the ceremonies now take place.
 PS: Here is a list of the most recent winners of 2012 at The Dunmow Flitch Trials website
