Festivals of the World to Go See
It doesn’t matter who you are or where you come from – everyone loves a festival. A festival is (often) a multi-day celebration where people with a common interest can commune together and enjoy the food, the fun, and each other. In short, it’s a celebration of life. Here are just a few of the epic festivals around the world. Edinburgh Fringe Festival - 3 weeks in August This is the world’s largest performing arts festival! Greats such as Eddie Izzard and Billy Connolly got their humble start here as street performers. Dating back to 1947, the Fringe welcomes artists of every genre. Last year (2017) saw the festival span over twenty days, with over 53,000 performances of 3,400 shows in 300 venues! With that much to choose from, you really have to do your planning beforehand. If you are keen to see one of the more popular performers, get your tickets early! Or just walk the streets and perhaps discover the next great artist! Mardi Gras – New Orleans – early February, but in NOLA, it really starts in January! Fat Tuesday is a crazy crazy celebration. We’ve all heard the stories. Naked painted women (or just plain naked) walking down Bourbon Street throwing strings of beads up to hollering men waving cups of beer or hurricanes up on the balconies lining the streets. Dozens of parades with elaborate floats organized by crews. You have to book your trip at least a year in advance to get a decent hotel during the celebration. But oh, what a celebration! If you don’t mind stinky, drunken crowds and love parades, this is the festival for you. Read More
