About Star Wars Day in 2027
One of the earliest recorded public uses was a 1979 newspaper advertisement placed by the UK Conservative Party congratulating Margaret Thatcher on her election win, reading 'May the Fourth Be With You, Maggie.'
The original 1977 film never used the phrase 'May the Force be with you' in that exact wording in a way tied to the date — the pun was a later, independent coincidence exploited by fans and marketers.
Retailers now routinely run Star Wars-themed sales tied to the date, treating it as a minor but recurring seasonal commercial event.
