May 1st in Hungary was a massive state holiday during communism, with mandatory parades and slogans. The parades are gone, but the day off remains. Families go to the park, the markets are open, and the older generation remembers when attendance was not optional.
The tradition of the majalis: families pack food and go to the park or the forest. The children run, the adults eat cold chicken and drink fröccs (wine mixed with soda water), and the city smells like lilacs. The lilacs bloom for exactly two weeks in May, and every Hungarian will tell you that May without lilacs is not May.
