Star Wars Day
May 4, Sunday
Star Wars Day is celebrated annually on May 4. This date was chosen because of the similarity of the phrase from the film "May the Force be with you" and the words "May the Fourth", which became a kind of play on words. The holiday arose thanks to fans of the famous space saga and over time gained wide recognition.Celebration traditions
