If you like having fun, there\u2019s a good chance you\u2019ve been to many parties and festivals. Mostly music festivals, am I right? Well, if you thought that\u2019s the only type of fest, you\u2019d be dead wrong. There are festivals for almost any occasion, especially during summer time. Some of them are quite unusual, like the Water Gun fest in South Korea, while others are outright bonkers!\n\n\n\n
If you\u2019re looking for a place to visit, keep in mind these 9 locations, for they hold the weirdest festivals on earth.\n\n\n\n
1. Sinchon Water Gun Festival, South Korea\n\n\n\n It\u2019s pretty self-explanatory and fun: water gun, hot summer days, street performances, loud music, and a lot of wet t-shirts. What\u2019s not to love?\n\n\n\n 2. Boryeong Mud Festival, South Korea\n\n\n\n An annual Mud Fest is all about getting dirty. It\u2019s a lot like the Water Gun Fest, if you add some mud. Music, fireworks and everything else is included!\n\n\n\n 3. Hair Freezing Contest, Canada\n\n\n\n Canadians are weird, but this tradition makes them look even wackier. You get into the hot springs, you wet your hair, and you wait until it gets all frosty, so you can basically bend it anyway you want. Not gonna lie, I\u2019d lose right away.\n\n\n\n 4. Underwater Music Festival, United States\n\n\n\n Just look at these underwater weirdos! Do you really need an explanation other than \u201cthey\u2019re playing fish trumpets\u201d?\n\n\n\n 5. La Tomatina, Valencia, Spain\n\n\n\n Everyone like tomatoes, well, except for Link from GMM, so of course, someone at some point in time said \u201cHey, we have so many tomatoes left, what should we do with them? Oh, yes, let\u2019s bathe in their juice and throw \u2019em at each other!\u201d \n\n\n\n 6. Cheung Chau Bun Festival, China\n\n\n\n Do you see those white dome-like things? Those are sweet buns, and people use them to decorate 60 feet high towers. After that, people start climbing these sweet towers, trying to take as many delicious sweets as they can.\n\n\n\n 7. World Toe Wrestling Championships, UK\n\n\n\n What can be said about toe wrestling? First of all, it\u2019s not a made-up competition. Second, it involves toes. And third, I hope the contestants wash their wrestlers before and after the match.\n\n\n\n One of the most beautiful festivals ever is the Floating Lantern Fest in Hawaii. If you get to see it with your own eyes, you\u2019re guaranteed to never forget how breath-taking all those lanterns look.\n\n\n\n 9. Lopburi Monkey Banquet, Thailand\n\n\n\n Imagine thousands of monkeys devouring fruits, ice cream, probably pancakes \u2013 anything and everything the humans prepared for the Lopburi festival. It\u2019s a magical feast for these primates, and it\u2019s a real pleasure to observe!\n\n\n\n If you like having fun, there\u2019s a good chance you\u2019ve been to many parties and festivals. Mostly music festivals, am I right? Well, if you thought that\u2019s the only type of fest, you\u2019d be dead wrong. There are festivals for almost any occasion, especially during summer time.
