Featured British Festivals

Cheese Rolling (Coopers Hill, England)
Festival Types: Sport - Bizarre, Bizarre, Harvest
Month: May

Whenever you catch a wacky, global sports round-up on the tele chances are they'll feature a bunch of Brits rolling uncontrollably down a ridiculously steep hill, neigh precipice, following a 7 pound chunk of cheese. Welcome to the outrageous world of Cheese Rolling, an age-old Pagan tradition celebrated annually in the Cotswalds and a damn good bit of fun to boot.

Edinburgh Fringe Festival (Edinburgh, Scotland)
Festival Types: Fringe, Performing Art, Comedy
Month: August

The Edinburgh Fringe (or just 'The Fringe' to it's friends) takes place for three manic weeks in Scotland's beguiling capital, Edinburgh, each and every August. Now established as the world's largest arts festival (with a heavy tilt toward comedy), and with no selection committee to draw the boundaries, expect the unexpected. From impromptu Shakespeare to experimental farce, Edinburgh's Fringe is bound to offer up something for every taste.

Glastonbury Festival (Glastonbury, England)
Festival Types: Music - Rock, Party, Art
Month: June

Glastonbury - or Glasto to it's friends - is a multi-headed behemoth of an event, a legendary hippie gathering and the largest greenfield music and performing arts festival in the world.

Today it's headline musicians are plucked from a pouch of the biggest players of the day but it doesn't stop with the live tunes. For four days each and every June 170,000+ festival-goers are treated to over 700 performances of music, dance, comedy, theatre, circus, cabaret and a myriad of other arts on the 900 acre grounds - rain, hail or shine, though it's often the former.

So if you're taste in music is eclectic, your need for sleep non-existent and there's a touch of hippie stirring somewhere deep inside, then a trip to Glastonbury is a must at least once in this lifetime.

Hogmanay (All Areas, Scotland)
Festival Types: New Year, Party, Traditional
Month: December

The Scots have always been a highly hospitable bunch proud of their tradition. And for the brave, what better way to see it in action than during Hogmanay - Europe’s finest celebration of the new year.

Enjoy a wee dram in a Royal Mile pub then stomp up a hill with thousands of others, torches ablaze. Follow it up the next night along with hundreds of thousands of other revellers on the streets of Edinburgh to some huge headline acts and the splendor of Edinburgh Castle as a backdrop. It don’t get much better than that! Pack a jacket.

Notting Hill Carnival (London, England)
Festival Types: Carnival, Street Parade, Party
Month: August

Each and every August the chic London suburb of Notting Hill turns it on for Europe’s biggest celebration of Carnival. DJs and live acts take to the streets, colorful floats and scantily clad revellers ply the parade route to a samba beat and miles of street stalls sell jerk chicken and blackened corn on the cob by the bucket-load. If you make it to London for one weekend this year make it the bank holiday weekend in August for London's very own carnival - Notting Hill Carnival.
