About the event
The origins of Labor Day can be traced back to the labor union movement, which advocated for better working conditions, fair wages, and reasonable working hours. The first Labor Day parade took place in New York City on September 5, 1882, organized by the Central Labor Union.
Labor Day marks the unofficial end of summer in the U.S. and is often associated with outdoor activities, barbecues, and family gatherings. It also serves as a reminder of the ongoing struggles and achievements of workers and labor rights.
