Twins Days
By: © Nelson Taylor 2008
Festival Location: Twinsburg, OH, USA
Festival State: Ohio Festivals
Festival Type: Bizarre Festivals
Which came first, the town or the gathering? In this case, it happens to be the town, which, since 1976, has put its name to use by holding the world's largest annual gathering of twins. Every August, about 3,000 sets of twins descend upon Twinsburg to celebrate their unique genetic structure. Other multiple births such as triplets and quadruplets are welcome as well. Well, anyone is welcome for that matter and Twin Days attracts over 60,000 during this three-day event.
It seems like there's a little discrimination going on here as anyone of multiple birth only has to pay $5 for the festival while all single-birth babies have to shell out $10.
