May Day, a pagan religious festival, is best known for dancing around a Maypole or the crowning of the Queen of the May. As a celebration of the start of summer it was a popular and wild occasion.

Many of the old traditions associated with the day have died out - such as the giving of May Baskets (filled with flowers or sweets) - but village fetes or fairs often still occur. In some places specific celebrations are arranged: in Oxford the Magdalen College Choir sing in the dawn from the top of their chapel tower, in Padstow they celebrate 'Obby 'Oss Day and there's a Sweeps Festival held in Rochester.
