April 16, 2008 (FPRC) -- Dance in bright coloured Flamenco dresses and snack on tasty tapas all day at the Seville Feria de Abril in Spain, float over freshly harvested rice plains in Japan at one of the world’s largest balloon festivals, or scare away evil spirits with fireworks to celebrate the Chinese New Year in Hong Kong. The options are endless, the parties are never-ending, and spirits are high. Whether watching professionally trained elephants play tug-a-war in Surin or battling the crowd to touch the ropes of the Jagannath (Lord of the Universe) chariot in Puri, the World Reviewer offers festival experiences that will entertain and intrigue you.
If performing arts are what you fancy, enjoy the 24 hour sunlight in St. Petersburg and attend some of the best ballet, opera and classical music performances you could ever see during the White Nights Festival in May and June. Or if you’re an aspiring film maker, go to Tropfest in Sydney and debut your best work – if you’re lucky you’ll become a VIP in the film industry. But don’t forget to sample the food wherever you go. Stop by the White Truffle Festival in Tuscany and eat a crepe oozing with rich white truffles (of course), head to Rocamadour and try gooey and smelly cheeses, indulge yourself with beer and sausages at Oktoberfest in Munich, or let a fresh sardine, lightly salted if you wish, slide down your throat at the Skala Kaloni Sardine Festival in Greece – you’ll be pleasantly surprised how much you enjoy it.
Whether you’re searching for place to unleash your inner party animal or satisfy your curious taste buds, the World Reviewer can help you find the festival you desire, at the location you’ve always wanted to travel to.
