The Day of the Macedonian Revolutionary Struggle is a national holiday which is celebrated on October 23rd in North Macedonia. In 2007 the holiday was voted into law as a new national holiday. It is a non-working day.
The holiday is celebrated on the occasion of the formation of the Internal Macedonian Revolutionary Organization in Thessaloniki. On October 23, 1893 six young men gathered at the home of the bookstore owner Ivan Hadži Nikolov in Thessaloniki in order to form the basis which would later become the symbol and flag for the struggle for Macedonian freedom. The founders were: Hristo Tatarčev, Dame Gruev, Petar Pop Arsov, Ivan Hadži Nikolov, Andon Dimitrov and Hristo Batandžiev.
They formed a covert group, calling it the Macedonian Revolotionary Organization.
