Pick a corner of
the odd kingdom.

Every corner of the UK has its own brand of peculiar. England has the most events — Shrovetide football in Ashbourne, tar barrels in Ottery St Mary, cheese at Cooper’s Hill — but Scotland owns winter with its fire festivals, Wales has made tiny Llanwrtyd Wells the capital of odd, and Northern Ireland brings one of Europe’s biggest Halloweens and the Ould Lammas Fair.
