May Day
El May Day (1 de mayo) se celebra en algunas partes de Gran Bretaña con el morris dancing. En algunos patios de colegios y pueblos se levanta un maypole (árbol de mayo) que es adornado con cintas de colores. Cada persona baila cogida a una de esas cintas unos detrás de otros, formándose así un bonito dibujo en torno al árbol.
