What's the difference between an 'event' and a 'holiday'?

An 'event' is generally one of those fun, interesting, or informative dates that various organizations come up with. Some examples are 'National Coffee Day' or 'Talk Like a Pirate Day'.

A 'holiday', on the other hand, is one of those days for which you got off from school or send someone a card. Some examples are New Year's Day, Valentine's Day or the 4th of July.
