San Francisco marked the 50th anniversary of the 1967 Summer of Love with “Flowers in Your Hair Day,” an event encouraging residents to wear flowers—real or crafted—in their hair as a tribute to the original counterculture movement. People of all ages took part across the city, and community groups and institutions held flower-themed activities. The gesture served as a collective celebration of peace, creativity and the enduring symbolism of the flower tradition.
