There really is a day to celebrate everything.

Hundreds of Londoners have gathered in the center of the capital to celebrate national Pillow Fight Day – and it ended up rather feathery.

Anyone disappointed to miss out – and let's be honest, who knew it existed – can put a date in the diary for the annual day which falls on the first Saturday of April every year.

Here's what it looked like.
