Jehovah's Witnesses celebrate a Memorial service for the sacrifice Jesus Christ made for mankind each year. It corresponds to what other Christian sects call "Easter".

They also celebrate wedding anniversaries of themselves and their friends.

They also celebrate special assembly days and circuit days pertaining to their faith.

Jehovah's Witnesses celebrate their wedding anniversaries.

They also honor the Memorial of Jesus Death each year at Nissan 14, the night Jesus instituted the new covenant with his apostles. In breaking the bread and drinking the wine, Jesus asked them to do this in memory of him. This new covenant is what took them out from under the Mosaic Law and into a new and improved relationship with God, through the death of Jesus Christ.

While not a typical celebration, it is a very important day every year for Jehovah's Witnesses

Jehovah's Witnesses always adhere to Bible standards. This is why they do not follow human traditions such as celebrating man-made holidays that have pagan origins (Christmas, Easter, St. Patrick's Day, Halloween etc.). However, Jehovah's Witnesses do celebrate the death of Jesus Christ on the day corresponding to Nisan 14 (from the Hebrew calendar). Jesus himself instituted this observance.

Luke 22:19, 20 states:

Also, he took a loaf, gave thanks, broke it, and gave it to them, saying: "This means my body which is to be given in your behalf. KEEP DOING THIS IN REMEMBRANCE OF ME." Also, the cup in the same way after they had the evening meal, he saying: "This cup means the new covenant by virtue of my blood, which is to be poured out in your behalf.
