- The date originates from the pun “May the Fourth be with you” which is derived from the iconic phrase “May the Force be with you”. Interestingly Lucasfilm never declared such holiday but many Star Wars fans across the world started celebrating this holiday which later made Lucasfilm and the parent company Disney embrace it as an annual festivity.
