Throughout lockdown I have missed going to the cinema. Outdoor cinema is the new THING and now even the UK’s first cinematic experience by boat. There are only a few days left to enjoy this, though. The Openaire Float-In Cinema sponsored by luxury ice cream brand Häagen-Dazs is opened to the public until Sunday 27th September. It follows the pioneering global first ‘cinema on water’…

The world’s second biggest carnival and Europe’s largest street event, Notting Hill Carnival 2019 will – for an incredible 53rd time…
Barclaycard British Summer Time Hyde Park 2019 is back for its 7thyear for more shows and unforgettable music moments. I haven’t missed a single one and I start looking forward to this festival as soon as the last gig finishes. Call me crazy, but live music in Hyde Park has to be one of the best things in life.

On Thursday 2nd May 2019, Skylight will be back for…

The Royal Windsor Horse Show will celebrate its largest ever prize fund making it a record-breaking year…
