For years, May 1 was celebrated as International Workers' Day, also known as Labor Day in some countries, and often referred to as May Day. Here, in 1929, these five South Carolinan textile strike leaders marched in the Communist May Day Parade at Union Square. They carried signs, some of which pleaded for help, and others read, "Everyone on the picket line! Defy the Injunction!" May Day in New York passed quietly.

Several stereo mixes are made of "Oh! Darling" on this day.
None will be used, because Paul McCartney redoes his vocals approximately 10,000 times.

It was on May the First that the two came back at last to the brink of the valley of Rivendell, where stood the Last (or the First) Homely House.

“We broke up on April Fool's day, so I took it as a joke. I'm willing to humor her for a month. Every day I buy a can of pineapple with an expiration date of May 1st. May loves pineapple, and May 1st is my birthday. I tell myself that if May hasn't come back by the time I've bought 30 cans, then our love will expire too.”
— Chungking Express (1994), dir. Wong Kar-wai
