Several races include the word "derby" in the title (the Kentucky Derby, the Florida Derby, the Epsom Derby, etc.) A race called a "derby" generally means that it is for 3 yr. old horses.
In American racing however, if one simply says, "The Derby" it is thought that (s)he is referring to the Kentucky Derby, America's most pristigious race and oldest athletic event of any kind. It ihas been held at Churchhill Downs in Louisville, Kentucky, on the first Saturday in May every year since 1875.
Since you aren't specifying which "Derby" I will assume you are referring to the Kentucky Derby; it is held on the first Saturday in May every year.
The first derby of the triple crown started in 1875 which is the Kentucky Derby.
The first Saturday in May is always Derby Day. This year it happens to be May first.
