Get out and go: Events around the world this week (September 24-29)

Happy Hump Day, Gadling'ers! The weekend is approaching, so it's time to look at the festivals and events happening around the world this week. If you're close and have time, then you have no excuse to get out and go!

• Kentucky - World Chicken Festival: Did you know the World Chicken Festival is held in London, Kentucky? Neither did I. Apparently, it is a family event with fairground rides, stalls, live entertainment and fried chicken. The festival runs from September 24-27.
• London - 'Love's Labour's Lost' opens Friday, September 25 at Shakespeare's Globe in London and will continue through October 10. It is a play about the King of Navarre and his courtiers who have forsworn every kind of pleasure.
• Maine - AppleFest 2009 will take place at the Monmouth Museum in Maine this Saturday, September 26. There will be a series of family activities to celebrate the apple harvest.
• Singapore - The Singapore Grand Prix will take place on Sunday, September 27. The race is part of the Formula 1 World Championship season.
• Brighton - Last, but certainly not least, the UK Air Guitar Championships will take place Tuesday, September 29! According to its website, sweet moves and an outrageous costume are a must!

If you make it to one of these events, let us know how it was.

'Til next week, have a great weekend -- the last of September!
