Luton

Luton is home to Luton Town Football Club, whose proud history includes several spells in the top flight of the English league as well as a Football League Cup triumph. They play at Kenilworth Road stadium, which has been their home since 1906.

London Luton Airport, opened in 1938, is one of England's major airports and during the Second World War doubled as an RAF base.

The University of Bedfordshire is located in the town.

The Luton Carnival, held on the late May bank holiday, is the largest one-day carnival in Europe.

The town was for many years famous for hat-making and was also home to a large Vauxhall Motors factory; the head office of Vauxhall Motors is still situated in the town. Car production at the plant began in 1905 and continued until 2002, but commercial vehicle production remains there to this day.
