What OP meant is not what OP actually said. Day of the week is fundamentally different from date.

Still wrong. What OP meant is that they're weekend holidays, where most participation is not on the day itself but the more convenient weekend around the holiday; thus the statement of them always being on the same day of the week.

In a given year, they both occur on the same day of the week. For example, this year, they both fall on a Tuesday. In 2021, they both occurred on a Sunday.
