If all goes to plan we are less than half a year away from seeing Matt Reeves interpretation of The Batman, starring Robert Pattinson on screens. Fortunately we have a stop gap in the form of Batman Day this Saturday 18th September.

Similar to the event that took place 2 years ago (and hopefully will take place annually) the iconic Bat Signal will be shone into the night sky, or at least 5 buildings at secret locations in London, Liverpool and Glasgow to alert Batman that his presence is required. As well as signal an Easter Egg hunt with Batman related prizes.


The secret locations have been chosen for their Batman connections. Notably, Glasgow, Liverpool and London have all been used as prominent filming locations for much anticipated The Batman, which will be released in 2022. Glasgow was used as a filming location for The Flash - also set for a 2022 release - which sees Michael Keaton reprise his role as the Defender of Gotham.

To honour Batman Day 2021, the iconic Bat-Signal will be appearing on five mystery UK buildings throughout the evening of the 18th September. The exact locations will not be revealed until the night of the launch but London, Liverpool, and Glasgow have been announced as the chosen cities.



From sundown on Batman Day, the huge and instantly recognisable Bat-Signal will travel up the country, being projected onto four different buildings along the way. Eagle eyed fans who spot the building and follow the Bat-Signal will also be in with the chance of being surprised with Batman themed rewards, as the first ten people on site to approach event organisers and declare “I love Batman” will win prizes.

Starting in London, travelling north to Liverpool and Glasgow, and then returning to Batman’s home… the timings for the evening have been revealed as:

8 - 8.30pm - London
8.45 - 9.15pm - Liverpool
9.30 - 10pm - Glasgow
10.15 - 10.45pm - London

The exact locations will be teased on Instagram and Facebook by DC GB Facebook and DCUKComics on the 18th to give Bat-Signal seekers a head start.


Batman Day 2021 will take place on Saturday 18th September
