3 . Four European Festivals You Don’t Want to Miss in 2023
Festival of Lights, Lyon
First held in 1643, the Festival of Lights lasts four days in December, which shows respect for the Virgin Mary. The festival s most exciting part is the lighting up of the Basilica of Fourviere in different colors. The evening light show at the Place des Terreaux is also not to be missed. If you decide to visit it, just be prepared for the crowds, as it is said that up to four million people attend.
Choregies d’Orange
Dating back to 1869, the Choregies d’Orange is the place to be if you love opera and classical music. It takes place every July in a beautifully preserved Roman Theatre in Orange. Almost 9 ,000 spectators (观众) come to the ancient theater. They also get to enjoy the exceptional natural acoustics(音响效果),created by the theater’ s original stone stage wall.
La Fete de la Musique
There’s music in the air throughout France on 21 June. This is when La Fete de la Musique takes place. The first all-day musical celebration was first held in Paris in 1982 but later became celebrated in 120 countries around the world. During the festival, thousands of musicians gather in the streets, bars and cafes giving free public performances.

Take a two-week trip that you will never forget as a volunteer with sharks on a beautiful stretch of South Africa’s coastline. Head out to sea to witness one of the world’s most powerful (and most misunderstood) creatures on this inspiring project, enjoying watching them from both above and below water.

Day 2: You will be collected bright and early from the guest house and taken down to the project. The drive takes about 90 minutes. You will receive a welcome and head out to sea to witness your first sharks!
Day 3+: Most days you will be out on the boat with the sharks, depending on weather. Help out with the full range of tasks on the boats, and in conservation initiatives on land too.
Last day: On the final day of your project you will be taken back to Cape Town for your onward travel.
The price is £829,including the voluntary work programme with accommodations, airport transfers, one night in a guest house in Cape Town, breakfasts daily and lunches when on the boats. Your trip can be extended at a cost of £ 375 per week.
It is an amazing experience! Some volunteers planned to stay for 4 weeks, extended to 6 weeks and still didn’t want to come home. If you’d like to chat about this holiday or need help, we’re very happy to help.
