An exciting podcast where I attend and review fun festivals! I also try to interview festival organizers and even try to talk to some of the performers at these festivals! The stranger the festival, the better! A Pirate Festival? Bring it on! A Chocolate Festival? Of course! How about an Owl Festival? WHO would say no to that? (lol). I hope you enjoy this podcast where you get to learn about some of these festivals and the communities that bring them to light. Enjoy!
