MAY

DAY

WHERE AND WHEN

May Day is a traditional festival. People celebrate it across Europe and the USA every year on the first day of May. In the UK, it's a public holiday so not many people work on this day.

HISTORY

Most people think that May Day started as a Roman festival to celebrate the end of winter and the start of summer. The first of May used to be the first day of summer in Europe.

ACTIVITIES

In the UK, there are celebrations all around the country to celebrate May Day, with traditional events and activities. One traditional activity is 'May pole dancing'. In this activity, people dance around a tall pole with colourful ribbons. The ribbons create a decorative pattern at the top of the pole as the people dance around it. A lot of schools in rural areas organise maypole dances for their pupils. Another traditional dance during May Day celebrations is 'morris dancing'. Dancers dress in white clothes with bells attached to them and carry scarves and long wooden sticks. The participants hit their sticks together in the air as they perform a special dance. The bells on their clothes make sounds as they dance to traditional accordion music. Other traditions include making displays with flowers, decorating houses with flowers and leaves, and special processions through the streets with people dressed in special costumes or fancy dress.

Food

There isn't much traditional May Day food, but at May Day events you can typically find traditional British cakes, biscuits and desserts. Fast food like hot dogs and hamburgers are also common.
