Google Holiday Logos History

Many of you have noticed that the logo changes from time to time on the Google homepage. These changes are dedicated to various events. On Habré there are often separate themes dedicated to one or another logos. But I still have not seen the complete collection, and therefore I tried to find the maximum number of these festive logos.

UPD Comrades who put a minus, please comment for what! And it is not clear at all, he sat writing, so that later he could mince it. It's a shame ...

To my great surprise, the Google website did not have a complete collection; only some logos are listed:

Google's Eighth Birthday - September 2006


US Independence Day - July 4, 2006
')

World Cup - June 9, 2006


Victory Day - May 9, 2006

All of these, and some other logos flashed on the Google homepage in 2006.
Full list

The tradition to change the logo appeared back in 1998, then Larry and Sergey before leaving for the Burning Man festival placed the logo of this festival in the Google logo.

Since then, Google has changed its logo. Marketers were against it, because according to the laws of marketing the logo should not change, but users like it!
Already in 1999, Google changed its logo, first on Halloween:

And then for Thanksgiving:


In 2000, Google did not bypass the US election campaign:

As well as the Summer Olympics in Sydney. Kangaroo was added to the logo, and the letters of the logo were repainted in the colors of the Olympic rings, symbolizing all the continents participating in the Olympics:




Also in 2000, aliens first appeared on the logo:


It should be noted that Google changes its howling from year to year for New Year, Thanksgiving Day, Father's Day, Mother's Day, Independence Day and Earth Day .
For example, this is how it looked in 2000:

New Year - 2000

Thanksgiving Day.

In 2001, Google also celebrated Korea’s Independence Day, Swiss National Day, Bastille Day, Canada Day, and of course, US Independence Day.

From year to year, there were more and more dates that Google could not ignore, in 2002, for example, the logo dedicated to Pablo Picasso’s Birthday appeared:

In addition, the World Cup was celebrated in Japan and South Korea:

In 2005, Google changed the logo on May 3 - Teacher's Day

And the birthday of Leonardo Da Vinci:


The logos of 2006 were given above, it is worth noting that in 2006, Google began to celebrate national holidays on different domains. So for example on Google.co.il (Israel) the Jewish New Year (Rosh Hashanah) was marked:

In German, Google.de, Germany's day of unification:
