Redhead Sicily – 2025 TBA:
This festival usually takes on the coast of Favignana in Sicily. This event greets you with, not only the picturesque views of the ocean, but also games, music, stalls, and competitions.

Roodharigendag (Redhead Day Netherlands) – 29-31 August 2025:
Possibly the most famous ginger celebration of all. This summertime festival is held in Tilburg, Netherlands. The festival focuses on art, lectures, music and demonstrations connected to red hair.
The festival was founded by the Dutch artist Bart Rouwenhorst, who advertised his need for ginger models back in 2005. Instead of the 15 he asked for, 150 redheads volunteered. The group took part in a photoshoot, and for years later, the tradition continued. There you have it! Roodharigendag!
