NATIONAL POWER RANGERS DAY
On August 28, It’s Morphin’ Time! National Power Rangers Day officially recognizes the original “teenagers with attitude” and celebrates all things Power Rangers!
In 1993, five ordinary teenagers exploded on the pop-culture scene with the launch of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers.

Today, this grand tradition continues as new Ranger teams and new generations of fans discover these essential values over and over again.

Maybe your talent hasn’t been discovered yet. That’s ok! No matter where you live or who you are, with discipline, mindfulness, and heart, anyone can become a Power Ranger. Ultimately, the goal is to call your friends, color coordinate and get ready to celebrate National Power Rangers Day!

Celebrating the Anniversary
Throughout its history, Power Rangers pioneered diversity, inclusivity, and teamwork exemplifying these values through every episode.
