24 May - Bermuda Day
To celebrate the holiday, there is a parade in Hamilton, Bermuda, and a road race from the west end of the island into Hamilton.
Bermuda Day is a public holiday in the islands of Bermuda. It is celebrated on the last Friday in May (previously on 24 May or nearest Monday if that fell on a weekend. From 2018, a decision was made to move it permanently to a Friday).
Bermuda Day is traditionally the first day of the year that residents will go into the sea. It is also traditionally the first day on which Bermuda shorts are worn as business attire (although in recent years, Bermuda shorts are increasingly worn at any time of the year). Many people also see Bermuda Day as the first day on which they can go out on the water after the winter — consequently there is always a rush to get one's boat 'in de water' before Bermuda Day.
