Born on 15 January 1919, this year marks George Price Day, which would have been his 105th birthday. In 2021, the Briceño Administration designated the birthday of the Right Honourable George Cadle Price, 15 January, as a national holiday.
George Price Day is an opportunity to reflect on his contributions to Belize’s journey as an independent nation and to honour the values he championed. As the day falls midweek, it provides a unique chance for communities to come together in celebration, despite potential challenges for businesses and work schedules. Numerous activities will occur nationwide to pay tribute to Price’s unwavering dedication to serving others.
