Except it isn't. May Day is a celebration of Spring which across Europe embodies many pre-Christian elements. Look up "Padstow 'Obby 'Oss" on Google for one example (and, if you know nothing of English folklore, culture shock is in store).
May Day was later adopted as a workers' holiday and communism jumped on the bandwagon. Even Americans have Labor Day (they just go their own sweet way with the date).
