Bonfire Night
The night before the Twelfth, Protestant communities in Northern Ireland build massive bonfires. The bonfires are made of wooden pallets, tires, and sometimes Irish flags or effigies. The fires can reach 100 feet, and the air quality suffers. The tradition is divisive, and the bonfire is a symbol of cultural identity that is celebrated by one community and feared by the other.

Ireland Fresh Bread Smell Day
A day for bakeries, kitchens, markets, ovens, and the aroma that can turn a street corner into a memory.
