The Summer Arts & Entertainment Guide
Because the year’s too long and summer’s too short to waste time on the mediocre.
We hope you weren’t expecting to get much work done this summer. The cultural calendar is bursting with so much talent that getting to the ‘must-sees’ alone could be your full-time job.
The nights are long; savour them. Festivals call out for your dance moves, outdoor cinemas flicker invitingly in oasis-like parks, the circus comes to town and art galleries proffer the balm of air conditioning with their summer blockbusters. Whether you've got the hot ticket of the season or are meandering down to something free and loose, there's plenty to inspire.
