Straw Bear FestivalOne of the most unusual, but traditional
British festivals. It takes place in Whittlesey,
which is a little town near Cambridge. This
event runs from January 13 to 15. Whittlesey is
one of the few places in modern Britain, where
Straw Bear Festival is still celebrated.

This festival is basedon the national
ceremony dedicated
to spring fertility.
Around 350
performers will turn
the streets into a
moving wave of fun
and fancy dress. It is a
great fun and, at the
same, time fascinating
spectacle.

Candlemas DayCandlemas is a Christian
holiday celebrated
annually on February 2.
It celebrates three
occasions according to
Christian belief: the
presentation of the child
Jesus; Jesus’ first entry
into the temple; and it

Mary’s purification

Snowdrops, symbolize hope according to
Christian belief. They often bloom early in the
year, even before Candlemas.
