Whittlesea Straw Beer Festival

The Whittlesea Straw Bear Festival takes place every year in January. It has spawned into a weekend of celebrations with concerts, dances and processions including Molly Dancers.

Straw from the previous harvest is used to dress a man up as a Straw Bear and he dances in front of the village houses and dances for food or drink.
