HIGHLAND GAMES

Highland games are held in Scotland in summer. It's a sport tradition. Events include throwing heavy metal objects and even tree trunks, but there are also races, Scottish Highland dancing competitions and the "tug-of-war". You need to be fit and very strong to win!


NATIONAL HAMBURGER MONTH

Americans celebrate their favourite sandwich for an entire month. On average, every single person in the USA eats three burgers a week, that's nearly 50 billion hamburgers every year. That's a lot of burgers!


2017 AMERICA'S CUP

This is the most famous sailing event in the world. It is organized every four years, and this year it is in Bermuda. Pairs of boats race each other, competing for speed, strategy and tactics. It's one of the most difficult sporting trophies to win!


MAYPOLE DANCING IN MAY!

This pagan tradition began in villages in England and Wales in 1350, but in the 1700s the Church banned maypoles. Today, the tradition is celebrated on 1 May. Dancers hold coloured ribbons as they dance around a tree trunk (the maypole). Today, it's not a pagan festival, but it's good fun!



GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY

The Guardians continue their adventures in the galaxy! They are joined by the old enemies, who become new allies, and other characters from the Marvel Universe, including Taserface, Mantis, Nebula and Yondu. The team discover the truth about Peter Quill's parents and must flight to stay united. And, as before, great rock songs accompany the action. Fans will be dancing in the cinema.
