Jackson Day is a holiday associated with the Battle of New Orleans, commemorating the American victory on January 8, 1815.

The day honors General Andrew Jackson and his leadership during the battle, which became a symbol of American resilience and nationalism. Jackson Day was first celebrated in the 19th century, particularly in Louisiana, where the battle took place, and continues to be recognized, albeit on a smaller scale today. This holiday reflects the historical significance of the battle, which not only solidified Jackson's legacy but also boosted national pride following the War of 1812.
