Akron/Summit Convention & Visitors Bureau Gears Up for 330 Shirt Day
AKRON, OH (March 7, 2025) – The Akron/Summit Convention & Visitors Bureau (ASCVB) is asking all residents within the 330 to mark their calendars for the last weekend in March to celebrate 330 Shirt Day. This year, March 30 falls on a Sunday, so the celebration will be extended to the full weekend of March 28 – 30. 330 Shirt Day is a special weekend for residents to show off their community pride by wearing locally themed shirts, hats and other gear.
People are encouraged to wear their favorite shirt that represents the 330 during the celebration weekend. Show your love for a restaurant, sporting event or team, school or band, or even a coffee shop or brewery. With such a variety of options in Summit County, truly anything goes!
Want more local swag? Use 330 Shirt Day as a reason to purchase something new from one of the many great local apparel producers, retailers and thrift stores.
The ASCVB will be hosting a contest for a chance to win a $330 prize package. Don’t miss out! To be eligible for the contest, photos must:
- Include a person wearing a 330 area, locally themed shirt
- Be posted to Facebook, Instagram, or X between March 28 – 30, 2025
- Include the hashtag #330ShirtDay and tag the ASCVB in the post
“Summit County is full of people who love showing off where they live and work,” said Gregg Mervis, president and CEO of the ASCVB. “330 Shirt Day is a fun and engaging way to promote and show appreciation for our area.”
Traditionally, the ASCVB has encouraged participants to wear their gear to work and take fun photos. Companies also gathered their employees to take group pictures and upload them to social media. The most extraordinary and fun photo would be selected as the winner and the ASCVB would donate to the Akron-Canton Regional Foodbank in the winning organization’s honor. With 330 Shirt Day being on a Sunday, this year’s efforts will be more focused on individuals sporting their favorite local attire and the ASCVB will make a donation to the Foodbank in that person’s name.
