🌍 Holidays Around the World Trivia
This quiz takes you on a tour of holiday traditions across the globe, from lantern-lit winter festivals to spring celebrations that involve water fights and clouds of colored powder. The twelve questions cover well-known observances in Asia, Europe, the Americas, the Middle East, and the Pacific, along with a few American holidays you may have grown up with.
Difficulty ramps up as you go. The early questions focus on widely recognized celebrations, while later ones ask about dates, origins, and the details that only dedicated festival-goers tend to remember. Take your time, read each fact after answering, and see what you learn along the way.

- Tourist Just Landed — Every traveler starts somewhere, and your passport is still fresh. Many of these festivals are less famous than they deserve to be, so you have plenty to discover. Re-read the facts after you finish, pick one celebration that caught your eye, and look up how people mark it today. You'll be surprised how quickly the map fills in.
- Festival Wanderer — You've picked up solid cultural knowledge and recognize the big celebrations on sight. The middle questions likely tripped you up on dates and origins, which are the details most people mix up. Keep a note of the ones you missed, since they make great conversation starters at your next holiday gathering. A little more curiosity will turn those misses into easy wins.

A few of the harder questions were tough, and that's normal for a quiz that ranges across continents and centuries. Share your score with a friend who loves festivals and compare which facts surprised you most.
