With this weekend unofficially marking the end of summer, it is fitting to pay homage to the many festivals around the world that we have seen on Trend Hunter. Although most festivals are celebrated during the summer months, others occur in the cold of winter.
Most recently we’ve seen images from the Burning Man Festival in a Nevada desert. There’s a motorcycle festival, a shopping festival and even a Monkey Buffet Festival in Thailand. Let’s not forget the large selection of music and film festivals to choose from.
We can’t all be there in person to experience these festivals but luckily we can enjoy them through the posts on Trend Hunter.
