Why not take a touring holiday that coincides with a festival? From Mexico’s colourful Day of the Dead to the beach parties of Thailand's Full Moon Celebrations, from the bright lights of Diwali to the pomp and ceremony of the Edinburgh Military Tattoo, there is a festival worth visiting nearly every week of the year. Experience more unusual festivals such as Harbin’s Ice Festival or Naadam in Mongolia, places where independent travel can be challenging.
