No matter where you are in the WORLD, there’s sure to be a Batman Day event you can participate in. To celebrate the Dark Knight’s 80 years as the World’s Greatest Detective, DC and Warner Bros. are lighting up the night skies by projecting the iconic Bat-Signal, as well as producing fan celebrations, in major cities around the globe on Saturday, September 21.

The U.S. cities participating are New York City and Los Angeles. If you aren’t able to see the signals in person, you can follow along on the new Batman Bat-Tracker app, which will show the projections in real time.

There will also be Batman activations at the Presented by Amazon Batman shops, FAO Schwarz, and LEGO stores.
