"May 1st isn’t just International Workers’ Day, it’s also a traditional spring holiday although compared to some European countries, Portuguese celebrations tend to be rather muted. In Portugal, it’s also a day for protecting homes from evil for the year ahead, a tradition which is similar to the Gaelic Beltane."
