Nerd Pride Day, or Geek Pride Day, is an initiative which claims the right of every person to be a nerd or a geek. Of Spanish origin (“día del orgullo friki” in Spain), it is celebrated nowadays among Spanish frikis (an equivalent of geeks and nerds).

This day is celebrated on May 25 since 2006, celebrating the premiere of the first Star Wars movie in 1977. [Wikipedia]

So, dust off your Spock ears, display your  lightsaber on your belt or celebrate by visiting your local comic book store.  Forget Memorial Day, May 25th is a day to get your geek on!
