National Hobo Convention
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The National Hobo Convention is held on the second weekend of every August since 1900[1] in the town of Britt, Iowa, organized by the local Chamber of Commerce, and known throughout the town as the annual "Hobo Day" or "Hobo Days" celebration. The National Hobo Convention is the United States' largest gathering of hobos, itinerants, rail-riders (including train-hoppers), and tramps, who gather at the event to celebrate the American traveling worker.[2]
