This weekend the 7th Irish Redhead Convention takes place in Crosshaven Co. Cork, and with events such as the Carrot Tossing Championships and the Most Freckles Per Square Inch Competition taking place, it looks to be a great weekend.

However, if you can't get down to Crosshaven, not to worry because we're celebrating all things red on Netflix.

So sit back, cuddle up and get your ginger on:

1. Orange is the New Black

Come on, there's no better ginger out there than Red. She's fierce and a #BossLady, not to mention she's probably the best character in the series.

 

2. Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt

Gorgeous red head Ellie Kemper stars in Netflix's comedy from 30 Rock's Tina Fey and Robert Carlock, about a woman who's freed from a doomsday cult.

 

3. Homeland

Damien Lewis. Need we say any more? The series follows CIA analyst Carrie Mathison as she struggles with mental health and family issues while leading the war against terrorism.

 

4. Brooklyn

The life of a young Irish Immigrant forever changes when she visits 1950s New York. But when summoned home, she finds herself torn between two worlds.

 

5. Bachelorette

When a single overachiever learns a girl she teased in high school is getting married before her, she swallows her pride to serve as maid of honour.

 

6. Still Alice

When a happily married linguistics professor (Julianne Moore) with three children is diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease, it challengers her career and family life.

 

7. Haywire

A last minute mission in Dublin turns deadly for stunning secret operative Mallory Kane when she realises she has been betrayed.

The 5th annual Irish Redhead Convention is getting started this evening in Crosshaven, Co. Cork, and it sounds like it’s going to be LOADS of craic.

They have a carrot tossing competition, the best red eyebrows competition and let’s not forget the most freckles per squared inch competition. There’s even speed dating if you fancy bagging yourself a redhead!

The festival is a fundraiser for the Irish Cancer Society, so it’s for a good cause too. And all you non-redheads are more than welcome too, by the way.

We wonder if any of our famous friends will be showing their faces… Here are some of our favourite celebs with red hair – sorry, we mean strawberry blonde!

When Christina Hendricks was told to dye her hair red for her modelling career, she wasn't so sure, but it worked out pretty well! "I booked two or three jobs, because were a lot fewer redheads than blondes, and I was like, this is working for me, I’m keeping this!"
 

We love Emma Stone, and she loves being a redhead! "I’m blonde at the roots but red at heart.”
 

We were always so jealous of Debra Messing's red, curly hair!
 

Thank God Nicola Roberts stopped dying her hair brown and wearing fake tan – she looks WAY better when she goes natural!
 

Ed Sheeran is another one who says his red hair helped his career! "Being ginger can seem like a bad thing when you are young but as a musician it has been my saving grace – because if you see a ginger kid on TV and there is only one messy-haired ginger kid who plays guitar, it is very easy to find them on YouTube."
