· London
We already recommended that Mandy Moore hit up the Notting Hill Carnival this Sunday and Monday to forget her homesickness, but with a 3.5-mile-long parade route, there's plenty of room for everyone to party down. Of course there will be food and cocktails, and a whole slew of live bands banging out everything from calypso tunes to hip-hop.

· Atlanta
Atlanta resident will no doubt notice the 1st Annual Red Bull Soapbox Derby on Saturday, whether they want to or not, due to all of the street closures. The actual race happens on 10th Street, as 50 teams battle for the title of fastest non-motorized street racer. Technically, these races have been happening since 2006, but this year is a first in Atlanta. There's even an accompanying iPhone game, just in case you can't make it into town for the real thing.
