25 May - Peruvian Clown Day
Each year on May 25, Peru celebrates the Peruvian Clown Day in honor of José Alvarez Vélez, better known as Tony Perejil, a popular clown who died on that day in 1987.
In the late 1970s and in the 1980s Tony Perejil, the Clown of the Poor, set up his colorful tent in the shantytowns of the Peruvian capital and brought happiness and laughter to the children and adults living there. The little money he made, he donated to charity. And while he gave so much joy to those that needed it the most, Tony Perejil died alone in a hospital bed on May 25, 1987.
