The Eta Aquariid meteor shower is active at around April 20th to May 10, usually peaking on May 6th.
The radiant for this meteor shower is in Aquarius, which in the northern hemisphere rises a few hours before the sunrise - thus the meteor shower is best observed near the equator and in the southern hemisphere. However in the north early hours in the dawn might show some meteors.
