Happy (almost) May! Spring weather is finally here in New England. We are still social distancing so I am appreciating this more than ever this year! We have some great holidays to celebrate this month like Cinco de Mayo and Memorial Day as well as some really important ones during this time like Firefighters Day and Nurses Day. Check out the entire May Social Media Holiday Calendar for some creative holidays too! Not every holiday will be right for every business’s profile but you can pick and choose what works for your audience and get a few new content ideas to take the pressure off! 

You’ll also find a researched Instagram hashtag for each holiday.

I’ve chosen the hashtag so it will be a good fit for most accounts. I tried to keep the hashtags smaller for the most part so you won’t get lost in the crowd. 

Although at the time of publication, all the hashtags listed were good, keep in mind that Instagram can ban a hashtag at any time so make sure to test it before you use it by searching the hashtag in Instagram. If it shows up, it’s good. If you can’t find it, don’t use it. 

Below is the social media holiday calendar for May 2020.
