Star Wars Day is set to take place this year on May 4, however, it has a prominent origin and significance that many people might not know.
Star Wars has grown into an omnipresent pop culture giant with its own theme park as well as a never-ending stream of movies, television series and merchandise, when once it was simply a sci-fi series, according to USA Today.
The iconic franchise has its own holiday, too, if you are obsessed with the far away galaxy world and even if it’s one entirely fictional.
The unofficial celebration of the beloved space opera that falls every year on May 4 is Star Wars Day.
This also signals plenty of Star Wars festivals in cities across the United States. These festivals can include special deals from retailers who are seeking to capitalise on the hype. Moreover, an announcement or two from Disney about the future of the franchise can also be expected.
There is a reason that Star Wars Day is celebrated on May 4 as fans of the franchise know well that Obi-Wan Kenobi and other Jedi often use the phrase, “May the force be with you,” as a sentiment of good will.
However, for many fans this phrase sounds like “May The 4th Be With You!” and that is how a holiday was born.
