Birthday (event)

A birthday is an annual celebration of a person passing through a year of life that is usually commemorated with a party.

In mainstream Smurfs media, birthdays are considered big events in the Smurf Village, as the entire community would celebrate a Smurf's birthday with a party. In the EMPATH: The Luckiest Smurf story series, birthdays are very important to Empath, particularly his own, since he could only celebrate his birthday once every ten years when he was still living in Psychelia. On his 155th birthday, all his fellow Smurfs were trapped in a never-ending time-traveling journey due to the Key Of Chronos being destroyed when they were all transported to the prehistoric era, thus resulting in the event called The Lost Year.
