Because the Earth’s orbit around the Sun takes slightly longer than 365 days, companies will be celebrating Leap Day every four years on February 29, 2024, by giving away free gifts and special bargains. It takes place in. It takes place. It takes place. This only occurs once. Julius Caesar made the choice to synchronize Earth’s timekeeping with astronomical cycles, which is why we get leap years.
