It may still technically be summer but we've noticed the sun hiding more than usual. To us, it's the signal that festival season is slowly slipping away. If you still want to enjoy some mint festivals, you can find loads of the best in the UK and Europe - see out the season with a bang!
But now let's get back to the topic: ace new events!
We’ve got Rossi. at The Warehouse Project, Andy C in Nottingham, MK in Cardiff, an open-air house festival in Birmingham to close out the summer, a massive R&B gig with legends in Manchester, and more this week.
