The problem here is that the first pentecost occurred a few months after Jesus' death and resurrection and the precise year of this is uncertain within the span of a year or two...sometime between AD 32 and 33. The disciples had been told by Christ to stay in Jerusalem and wait for the anointing of the Holy Spirit. When the day came, they were all gathered together , including Mattias as a replacement for Judas, when suddenly the sound of a rushing wind came from heaven and flaming tongues descended on each of them. It was at that moment they were each filled with the Holy Spirit, and marked the formal, public beginning of the Church. You can find the account of the first pentecost in Acts 2.

So the answer to your question specifically is that the first pentecost was in the year of Jesus death and resurrection, AD 32 or 33.

Where was Mary on the first pentecost?

Actually the first Pentecost is recorded in Ex. 19.14-25 and Mary was not born until over 1500 years. But concerning the Pentecost described in Acts 2, Mary was in the upper room, but the disciples had gone up to the Temple to celebrate the First Pentecost (Ex. 19), and the men were in the courtyard of the men and the women were in their own courtyard. Notice that in Acts 2.5 it talks about 'men' and in verses 14, 22 and 29 Peter addresses the 'men'. The men respond in verse 37 and say to the disciples "men and brothers what shall we do".
