I'm interested to know how Russians typically celebrate the May Day holiday. Also is there a greeting that is commonly used on this day?

Спасибо for your reply elizza. : )
Isn't Victory Day coming up very soon this Friday (May 9th)? I guess this means that a lot of Russians will be enjoying a nice long holiday weekend.
Would it be appropriate to use a greeting such as the following with my Russian friends during this holiday weekend ?
С Маыскими праздниками! (S Mayskimi prazdnikami!)
"Happy May Holidays!" |
