This annual celebration was created in 1998 by physician Dr. Madan Kataria, founder of Laughter Yoga (an internationally-acclaimed laughter exercise and wellness movement). Today, 30 years later, Laughter Yoga is practiced in 120+ countries by members at thousands of laughter clubs. WLD events are being celebrated all around the world. The celebration of World Laughter Day is a positive manifestation for world peace and is intended to build a global consciousness of unity and friendship through laughter.
