We always go to Llandudno steam fair; similarly, we don't often miss Oktoberfest and Dartmouth Regatta.
The thing is we often travel round Europe and come across events that we wish we had known about in advance. We are not interested in music festivals or art exhibitions. We like Beer festivals, steam fairs and all those street events. I suppose the best way to describe what we are looking for are those events where it is obvious that the whole town is out and about on the street. Lots of food tents, souvenir shops, street entertainers. It does not matter what is being celebrated.
I can easily find web sites that show all the festivals in the world and they are searchable by date and country. They just don't work for me. With the best of intentions, please don't reply with a web site, I really only want locations and dates.
Is it possible to compile a list of "don't miss this if your passing" for events in UK and Europe? If the responses warrant it I will summarise and compile a list of dates and locations.
