Friendship Is Universal

Friendship is integral to Doctor Who’s DNA, our story at its core is about friends travelling all of time and space, creating memories together. It’s one of the things people love most about Doctor Who.

Friendship is Universal is a celebration of the companionship and camaraderie that is at the heart of Doctor Who, both in the characters we love, and the heart (or hearts!) of every fan of the Whoniverse.

Launched at San Diego Comic-Con 2024 with a collaboration between Doctor Who and Star Trek, we are taking International Friendship Day beyond the stars with the inaugural Intergalactic Friendship Day on Tuesday 30th July 2024. 

Make sure to keep a look out on this page for the latest activity on Friendship is Universal, and on the official Doctor Who feeds throughout 2024 for more updates!

I have the whole universe at my fingertips, and I'm all on my own. So I'd love it if you came with me.
