It takes place each year on the first Friday of Lent and is celebrated in Wisconsin, in the Midwest, in the United States, and around the world. On many Friday nights, family and friends gather together for fish frys at establishments like restaurants and bars, and that is what Friday Fish Fry Day is about.

German and Polish Catholic immigrants settled in Milwaukee in the 1860s and began the tradition of the Friday fish fry. During Lent, they didn't eat meat on Fridays, instead eating the fish they caught in Lake Michigan.
