Named after the biggest county in England (if you unite North, South, West and East Riding of Yorkshire, which is sort of cheating), it’s no surprise that Yorkshire Day is a thing. As an area on the up and up, it’s becoming one of the most important places in the UK, as the likes of Leeds, Hull, Bradford have become prominent as centres of finance, culture and much more.

So, whether you’re from Yorkshire or not, celebrate like one of the locals on August 1st by donning your flat cap, walking the damp countryside with your whippet, eating a Yorkshire pudding with gravy, then settling down to complain about the rising price of a pint of best bitter, ending the night on a cheerier note by remembering the good old days.
