Straw Bear Festival One of the most unusual, but traditional British festivals. It takes place in Whittlesey, which is a little town near Cambridge. This event runs from January 13 to 15.

This festival is based on the national ceremony dedicated This festival is based on the national ceremony dedicated to spring fertility. Around 350 performers will turn the streets into a moving wave of fun and fancy dress. It is a great fun and, at the same, time fascinating spectacle. Candlemas Day Candlemas is a Christian holiday celebrated annually on February 2. It celebrates three occasions according to Christian belief: the presentation of the child Jesus; Jesus’ first entry into the temple; and it celebrates the Virgin Mary’s purification Symbols of Candlemas Day The Candlemas Bells, also known as Snowdrops, symbolize hope according to Christian belief. They often bloom early in the year, even before Candlemas. There are a lot of different festivals in Great Britain, but these are the most interesting to my mind.
