May8 is our new national day for mateship.
Mateship has long been part of Australia’s story.
It’s a value many of us hold close. Loyalty. Equality. Friendship. Looking out for one another.
May 8 is that day. A day for all of us to reach out, show up, and remind the people around us they matter.
Why May 8 ?
May + Eight = MAY8
Why not May8?!
Wear May8s
1 for you and 1 for a May8
HOW TO MAY8DAY
Introduce yourself to someone new
Write a letter to a long lost mate
Do whatever you want… its May8Day
Take your neighbours bins out
Host your very own May8Day party
Wear a May8Day teeshirt
Get to the park and kick a footy
Go see a band you wouldn’t usually see
Try a dish you have never tried before
Build May 8 with us
If you believe Australia needs a day like this, let’s talk.
