One of the best ways to immerse yourself in the cultural delights of a travel destination is by participating in a local festival. Myriad festivals are held annually all across the country that offer attendees plenty of reasons to come together and celebrate as a community. Many of these festivals have emerged from traditional customs or just a sheer enthusiasm for food, art, film and music. And some of these annual events are so unique or quirky that you never would’ve even thought they existed.

We’ve compiled a list of some funny festivals that should be on your travel radar. Consider adding them to your itinerary if you’re traveling to these places around that time of year, and you’re guaranteed to return with a novel festival experience you'll want to tell stories about for years to come.
