  • An Island Tradition: 'May Day Is Lei Day'
    MENU SIGN ON Insights & Stories BANK OF HAWAII STORIES An Island Tradition: 'May Day is Lei Day' Posted: 05/01/2018 Reading time: 6 Minutes Most of us know the song “May Day is Lei Day in Hawaii," and that it's customary to give and wear beautiful flower lei on May 1. Some people celebrate by gathering sweet-smelling plumeria from their yard to string a simple lei, or for something fancier, perhaps cream-white puakenikeni. Others buy their lei—maybe delicate pikake, tuberose, or white ginger—strung fresh at a lei stand in Chinatown, or from the day's latest grocery store delivery. It doesn't matter how simple or fancy the lei, or whether you make or purchase it. The result is the same—sharing in a lei-giving and -wearing tradition that contributes to making these Islands the unique and lovely place that they are. But how did May 1 come to be associated with lei? And did you know that Bank of Hawaii hosted the first Lei Day celebration in its lobby? May Day became Lei Day in Hawaii in 1928, when artist and poet Don Blanding, an Oklahoma native who lived in Hawaii and wrote for the Honolulu Star-Bulletin, put forward the idea of creating a holiday to celebrate the tradition of making, giving and wearing lei. He mentioned the concept to Star-Bulletin's society editor Grace Tower Warren, who instantly expressed interest. She suggested pairing the holiday with May Day, a day already associated with flowers (which also happened to be her birthday)—and she's the one who coined the now-familiar phrase “May Day is Lei Day in Hawaii." Around that time, musicians Leonard “Red" Hawk and Ruth Hawk wrote the now-familiar song about it.
