Revenge of the Fifth is an unofficial Star Wars fan holiday celebrated on May 5, the day after May the Fourth, which is Star Wars Day. The name is a play on the title of the third Star Wars film, Episode III – Revenge of the Sith. While May the Fourth is traditionally a day to celebrate the Jedi Knights and the light side of the Force, Revenge of the Fifth is an opportunity to focus on the Sith Lords and the dark side.
