All the information you require on Star Wars Day

Every year on May 4th, people celebrate Star Wars Day, which was selected due to its pun-friendly resemblance to the famous Jedi greeting, “May the Force be with you.” The phrase “May the Fourth be with you” is used by fans all across the world to commemorate the holiday.

George Lucas’s Star Wars film series began in 1977 with the release of Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope.

Although the inaugural Star Wars Day celebration is not officially documented, the saying “May the 4th Be With You” dates back to 1978. When a London newspaper used it in a congratulations letter to Margaret Thatcher on her first day as prime minister on May 4, 1979, it became extremely well-known.The holiday’s rise was spurred by social media, which made it a treasured fan ritual.

Star Wars Day is observed by fans in a variety of ways, such as with themed parties and marathon movie screenings. Disney + Hotstar is the place to watch the Star Wars movies if you want to join in on the fun.

It’s thrilling to announce that on May 25, 2024, during the Cannes Film Festival’s closing ceremony, George Lucas will win the coveted Palme d’Or. His legendary contributions to film with “Star Wars” and “Indiana Jones” franchises are honored with this award.
