Nobody else? Then I'll give it a try...

After searching for a while I found that it's Chico Marx's and William Shatner's Birthday, but they're not really memes.
Then I found Marcel Marceau, aka Bip the Clown, born on 22.03.1923 and he's my guess.

Is it Christopher Columbus's arrival there?
I have ideas and I occasionally put them down.

Ooh. I know!

Magellan was guided to Cebu, a province/island of the Philippines by the Raja of Mazaua on April 7, 1521.

And now that I look at it again I can see Magellan's name in Latin in the first picture.

I can thank the Animaniacs for teaching me that Magellan went to the Philippines. :P

That's right. Ferdinand Magellan reached Cebu on April 7, 1521.

Sadly he died 20 days later while trying to conquer the neighbouring island Mactan.

Yeah, and the ship there is the Victoria, the only one of Magellan's fleet of 5 vessels that returned to Spain after the circumnavigation of the world.

Your turn, Hlaoroo.

The question is "What happened?".

When nobody else solves it, I'll do.

"Advance Australia Fair" became the Australian Anthem on 19 April 1984.
