Or maybe it doesn't need an apostrophe at all. Maybe it is a plural....

I say Father's Day, as in "Day of the Father".

Rather than Fathers' Day, "Day of the Fathers", even though that also makes grammatical sense ...

Usually seen as Father's Day.

I only ever had one father. It was his day. (Although he was never interested in a fuss anyway.)

Or; you could ask Harry Hill.

Father's Day = Father is day

Fathers' day = day of the father, as stated by Ellipsis.

LadyCG

It's Father's Day

Surely there are plans afoot to ban father's day?
