April Fools' Day is not a bank holiday, but it is celebrated in the United Kingdom and many other countries. Anyone who wants to have fun can celebrate the day. This is a day when people play tricks (jokes, pranks) to each other for fun. It's like the December 28th for us.
It also happens in France and it's called Poisson d'Avril.
The origin of April Fools' day is uncertain.
One theory suggests that the day comes from the change in the calendar in Europe from the Julian calendar to the Gregorian calendar. This moved the New Year form Spring (aronund April 1st) to January 1st. When people forgot and still celebrated the New Year in April, other people made fun of them.
Mucho ojo. Hoy es primero de abril. Es el equivalente anglosajón del Día de los Inocentes. Prometo portarme (casi) bien, pero no se fíen ustedes de nada ni de nadie.
Aupa kuadrila! Gaur bada bromak egiteko eguna Erresuma Batuan eta munduko hainbat lekuetan. Adi ibili!
