This time next week, we’ll lose an hour, but gain 60 minutes of sun. We’re another week closer to summer, and that means we have a slew of unmissable events that have just hit the webpages of Skiddle.
It shouldn’t come as a surprise that, with the weather starting to look more cheery and the knitwear staying in the wardrobe, we have lots of summer parties on this week’s New On Skiddle, but we don’t like to put all our eggs - Easter or otherwise - into one basket. There are also raves, festivals and new lineups awaiting in this week's edition, have a scroll and check it out!
