But it's 14 miles up the road where you'll find the World Chicken Festival, which has fans "flocking" to London, Kentucky, every September. The World's Largest Stainless Steel SkilletThe World Chicken Festival is where you'll find the world's largest stainless steel skillet, and it's not just on display; they put this sizable utensil to work. I get it; if you're hosting the World Chicken Festival, you need to be able to make a LOT of chicken all at once. And since 1989, the World Chicken Festival has been exactly that--one of Kentucky's biggest festivals. If you're looking for a fun (and tasty) early fall getaway, the World Chicken Festival is set for September 24th through the 27th in London.
