Beaujolais Day, also called Beaujolais Nouveau Day, originating in the Beaujolais region of France, is the first day that the Beaujolais Nouveau wine is officially for sale. Annually, this is the third Thursday in November. It is a celebratory occasion, as this is the first chance to taste the year's vintage.

Beaujolais Day has at least one pop culture reference. The song "Beaujolais Day" was written by Fish for his would-be fifth album with Marillion before he ended up leaving the band. A demo of the song appears on a remastered release of his final Marillion album, Clutching at Straws.
