It is thought that the Jack-in-the-Green custom originated around the
17th century from the milkmaids and chimney sweeps of London. As
part of the May Day processions milkmaids would carry milk pails
decorated with flowers and silverware. Over time the pails were
replaced with decorated headdresses. Not to be outdone, chimney
sweeps began creating garlands, which became bigger and bigger until
the frameworks of greenery and flowers covered an entire man, a Jack-
in-the-Green.
There were at least two groups in Hastings and St Leonards that
paraded a Jack-in-the-Green until about 1889. The tradition died out
nationwide in the early 20th century. Since the folk revival on the 1970s
many customs have been revived. Hastings Traditional Jack in the Green
was revived in 1983 by Mad Jack's Morris who gave 'Jack' his own face
and have helped host the event ever since.

6. What does Jack-in-the-
Green represent?
The 'Jack-in-the-Green', a dancing figure in
a foliage-covered wicker shell, is often
centre-stage in contemporary May Day
celebrations. Many have chosen to see
him as a survival from pagan religious
ritual, an expression of the 'Green Man',
and the embodiment of the spirit of
spring.
8. The largest event of its kind in the country, Hastings Traditional Jack in
the Green is an annual folk custom that was revived in Hastings in 1983
by Mad Jack’s Morris.
Taking place over the May Day bank holiday weekend, expect lots of
traditional dancing from performers from all over the country,
captivating concerts from some of the best folk acts, and join in with
fantastic ceilidhs and music sessions.
The main event is ‘Jack’ (a Jack-in-the-green), a man completely
covered in foliage topped with a floral crown. He bursts onto the
streets of Hastings and leads the procession through the town. After a
day of fun and merry-making he is stripped of his leaves to release the
spirit of summer. Catch a leaf and have a year of good luck!
