Is the day when the Holly Spirit was given to the first disciples!
It was when the Holly Spirit came down on the disciples and they all started speaking in different laguages and dialects and were able to witness about Christ the Lord to all the pilgrims gathered in Jerusalem. It was then that Peter, the Apostle, gave his first testimony about the Lord Jesus Christ testifying that He was the Messiah that the Jews were waitting for and as a consequence 5000 people trusted the Lord and became his followers.

see Acts 2:1-11

"When the day of Pentecost had come, the disciples were all together in one place. And suddenly from heaven there came a sound like the rush of a violent wind, and it filled the entire house where they were sitting. Divided tongues, as of fire, appeared among them, and a tongue rested on each of them. All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other languages, as the Spirit gave them ability.

Now there were devout Jews from every nation under heaven living in Jerusalem. And at this sound the crowd gathered and was bewildered, because each one heard them speaking in the native language of each. Amazed and astonished, they asked, "Are not all these who are speaking Galileans? And how is it that we hear, each of us, in our own native language? Parthians, Medes, Elamites, and residents of Mesopotamia, Judea and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia, Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of Libya belonging to Cyrene, and visitors from Rome, both Jews and proselytes, Cretans and Arabs-- in our own languages we hear them speaking about God's deeds of power."
