As an AI language model, I don't have access to information about future events or holidays. However, I can tell you about an obscure holiday that falls on May 2nd, which is the month and day of the date you mentioned.

May 2nd is celebrated as "World Tuna Day." This unusual holiday was established by the United Nations General Assembly in 2016 to raise awareness about the importance of tuna fish and to promote sustainable fishing practices.

Tuna is a significant source of food and livelihood for millions of people worldwide. However, due to overfishing and unsustainable fishing practices, many tuna species are now threatened with extinction. World Tuna Day aims to address these issues and encourage responsible management of tuna fisheries.

On this day, various events and activities are organized around the world to educate people about the ecological, economic, and social significance of tuna. These activities may include seminars, exhibitions, and even tuna-themed culinary events.

So, if you're a fan of tuna or passionate about marine conservation, mark your calendar for May 2nd and join in the celebration of World Tuna Day. You can participate by learning more about sustainable tuna fishing practices, supporting organizations that work towards tuna conservation, or simply enjoying a delicious and responsibly-sourced tuna dish.
