About International Women’s Day

International Women's Day has its roots in the early 20th century, stemming from a suffragette demonstration in New York City in 1904. The United Nations officially recognized March 8 as International Women's Day in 1975, dedicating it to honoring women's achievements and advocating for gender equality worldwide.

By celebrating women who have shaped the music industry and culture, Hard Rock Cafe aims to leverage the power of music to inspire and empower community members while raising awareness around women’s issues in the industry.
