The overlap of May Day and Vesak on May 1 is rare. Most political rallies are scheduled for the morning and afternoon, while Vesak lanterns are lit after dark. The police have announced special traffic plans to keep the two events separate. I recommend sticking to the Beira Lake area for lanterns as it is usually away from the main rally grounds at Galle Face.

Expect very heavy traffic and limited parking. It is better to use the new electric shuttle buses operating in central Colombo during that weekend to see the thoranas.
