# Set up a Birthday Role

Everyone should feel special on their birthday, and that's why Birthday gives you the option to assign a ***Birthday Role*** for a day to the birthday child!
If you wish to gift a special role on someone's birthday, first create a new role and make sure that the Bot's role is above the new one. Next, use ***/config birthday-role*** and select the role that should get assigned. Once you receive the confirmation message, you should be good to go.
