On the upcoming October 21, 2026, printing professionals and print enthusiasts around the world will join for the 13th annual International Print Day, sharing “printspiration” across social media with #IPD26 and celebrating the theme, #PrintWorks. From marketing campaigns and packaging to books, labels, signage, and beyond, #PrintWorks recognizes how creativity, technology, and skilled people come together to produce communication that gets noticed, remembered, and delivers results. Share some print love with the world through the projects, ideas, and applications that show the strength and effectiveness of print media. Share how your business contributes to creative and business results, and include the hashtags #IPD26 and #PrintWorks so your posts can be easily found and become part of the global conversation. International Print Day has generated more than 200 million impressions across social media since 2014.
The International Print Day celebration in the Democratic Republic of the Congo includes an International Print Day DRC panel on October 21, a student visit to Mediaspaul Printing House on October 23 to learn about printing and its role in education, and a gala for the DRC printing community at the Great Hall of the Kinshasa Botanical Garden on October 31. The official International Print Day 2026 poster, designed by Craig Bower of Design That Rocks, is available for download at internationalprintday.org.
