SUMMER EVENTS We’ve compiled a list of the most exciting events to keep you occupied during these hot July nights. Summer can’t be all work and no play, right? Coming Up: July 2020 DIGIFEST mini Get comfy and dust off your best speakers – with 10 live sets, 10 upcoming artists, and six genres of tunes spanning over an hour and a half, this year’s DIGIFEST is bound to be something else. There’ll be freebies, merch, and opportunities to make friends in the chatroom. Date: 02.07.20 Price range: FREE Natural History Museum Online We miss the Natural History Museum’s 25-metre whale skeleton too, especially since we might not get a chance to visit him after dark this summer. To make up for it, the Museum has released 14 virtual exhibitions, including one guided by Sir David Attenborough himself. Try connecting up your mobile device to a bigger screen and it’ll almost feel like you’re saying ‘hello’ to the whale in person. Date: all month long Price range: FREE (snacks not included) Secret Cinema: Dirty Dancing ‘Dust off your dancing shoes and turn up the radio; it’s time to bring back the heat,’ Secret Cinema tease their new immersive experience. Even with the location still a mystery, you’re destined to have the time of your life. Date: all month long Price range: £40 - £90 Virtual cocktail-making classes Is a glass of Sex on the Beach better than an actual beach? We’d argue it can be, if you made it yourself. Mix & Twist’s masterclasses guide you through making the snazziest cocktails, with each round adding in an interactive competition element, for those of you who are keen on showing off your skills. Date: every Saturday at 7:30pm Price range: £114 - £149 (ingredients for 20 cocktails included) The Delta Aquarids meteor shower Though the annual shower begins on the 12th, midnight of the 28th is when it’ll hit its peak, producing up to 20 meteor per hour. The quarter moon’s light is likely to block the fainter meteors this year, but tonight will be your safest bet for spotting the brighter ones. Keep an eye on Aquarius – they’ll be radiating from there. Date: 28.07.20 Price range: FREE 21
