I know that most pagans in the northern hemisphere celebrate
Beltane on May 1 while many in the southern hemisphere
celebrate Samhain then.

So does anyone (pagan or not) Down Under celebrate
Hallowe’en (Samhain Eve) on the evening/night of April 30?

Of course here in Canada April 30 is tax deadline. :-)

However, if you define it as halfway between the equinox and
the solstice, it is exactly 1158 UTC May 5, 2024, not May 1.
