It’s a movement!
What is Purple Day®?
Purple Day® is a global epilepsy awareness initiative founded in 2008 by a young girl from Canada who wanted people with epilepsy to know they are not alone. Celebrated annually on , Purple Day® encourages people worldwide to wear purple and start conversations about epilepsy.
About the Purple Day® Expo
The Purple Day® Expo is an official gathering designed to connect the epilepsy community in an inspiring, informative, and inclusive environment. We bring together leading experts, advocates, families, and friends to learn, share, and raise awareness.
Beyond education and advocacy, Purple Day® Expo is packed with fun activities for all ages! Think exciting giveaways, creative face painting, and interactive experiences, like meeting Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse, that make the day memorable. It’s a space where you’re never alone; surrounded by a supportive community, you’ll feel empowered and uplifted.
