National Spicy Guacamole Day is celebrated each year on November 14, honoring the fiery version of the classic Mexican avocado dip. The day invites guacamole lovers to turn up the heat by adding chili peppers such as jalapeños, serranos, or habaneros.

Just like its milder counterpart, National Guacamole Day on September 16, this observance celebrates the creamy, flavorful dish enjoyed at parties, taco nights, and Mexican restaurants across the world.

Although National Spicy Guacamole Day doesn’t attract the same attention as its parent celebration, it still finds a modest audience among food lovers online. The hashtag #NationalSpicyGuacamoleDay has appeared in just over 1,000 posts on both Instagram and Facebook—small compared to #NationalGuacamoleDay, which boasts more than 25,000 uses on Instagram and about 30,000 on Facebook.

When Is National Spicy Guacamole Day?

National Spicy Guacamole Day takes place every year on November 14, offering a reason to enjoy this fiery twist on the classic avocado dip. Since it’s a fixed-date observance, the celebration always falls on the same day each year, no matter the weekday.
