What defines your Great Britain moment? Perhaps it's touching the stone walls of a medieval castle that once hosted royal soirees, or strolling through the countryside and pausing for a tea paired with a cream-slathered scone. In between seeking out these experiences that are so iconic to England, Scotland and Wales, you'll create even deeper connections at special events taking place throughout Great Britain this year.

Rediscover Literary Legends - The pages of Great Britain's most enduring literary works come alive with these special celebrations.  What better place to honor the English language's most pre-eminent playwright and poet than at his hometown of Stratford-Upon-Avon?  To commemorate 400 years of William Shakespeare's legacy, seek out a theatrical experience at the Royal Shakespeare Company.  The crowing jewel of this year's celebrations will culminate in April with the transformation of Shakespeare's New Place, breathing new life into the heritage landmark where the literary giant spent 10 years of his adult life.

Step on Set:  In tandem with the celebrations of Great Britain's most sensational writers, this year we'll see the release of movies like the Brontes and the BFG, based on Roald Dahl's beolved story about the Big Friendly Giant.  Legend of Tarzan, the fable of a man raised by apes, gets a modern treatment amidst some of Britain's most impressive backdrops.  The film follows the character back to life in London and was shot in Dinorwig Quarry in north Wales, Kedleston Hall hear Derby and Windsor Great Park, just outside the English capital. Other upcoming big-screen films celebrating Great Britain's magical landscapes are sure to inspire you to explore these locales in person.
