Celebrate Star Wars Day 2025 at Funko and Funko Europe with the special Buy 2, Get 1 Free Star Wars Funko promotion.
May the 4th Be With You: Celebrating Star Wars Day
Every year on May 4th, Star Wars fans around the world unite to celebrate Star Wars Day — a day dedicated to one of the most iconic franchises in pop culture history.
Whether you’re a fan of the original trilogy, the prequels, or the latest Disney+ series, May the 4th is your day to geek out, rewatch your favorite scenes, and show off your collectibles.
The phrase “May the Fourth be with you” is a clever twist on the franchise’s famous line “May the Force be with you.” The pun was first used in a political context on May 4, 1979, when the UK’s Conservative Party ran a newspaper ad congratulating Margaret Thatcher on her election as Prime Minister.
The ad read: “May the Fourth Be with You, Maggie. Congratulations.”
Since then, fans gradually embraced the date, and it gained traction through online forums and fan events. By the early 2010s, it had become a global celebration.
Lucasfilm and Disney later recognized it officially, and now May 4th is packed with Star Wars content, announcements, merchandise drops, and themed promotions worldwide.
