Here is Kytrad's site where you can buy an excellent video about the festival.

Also, check this thread.

There is a tape available of may day in about 1953 ish. it has interviews with the mayers on it and you can get a real flavour of the day. Probably the most authoritative and extensive coverage on video and photo is held by Doc Rowe. Not only is he an authority on folklore but is a good guy too. PM me (as Cats) with your details and exactly what you want it for and I'll contact him for you.
