From the 1st to the 7th August, this world-renowned sailing regatta transforms the charming town of Cowes into a buzzing hub of activity.<\/p>\n<p class=\"fade-in\">While the competitive racing out on the Solent is a spectacular sight to behold, you don\u2019t need to be a seasoned sailor to enjoy the vibrant atmosphere. Stroll along the waterfront, feeling the buzz in the air as hundreds of boats, from classic beauties to cutting-edge designs, vie for position. The sound of the Royal Yacht Squadron\u2019s cannons is an iconic moment of this annual event and can be experienced from land or sea! That\u2019s right, spectators can even watch from the water with a variety of boat trip options to catch all the racing action up close.<\/p>\n<p class=\"fade-in\">Meanwhile, ashore, both East and West Cowes come alive with a fantastic array of events and entertainment, as well as local businesses to explore. At the heart of the action is Cowes Regatta Village @ the Parade, where you\u2019ll find live music stages, pop-up bars and splendid views of the Solent. Or if you\u2019re eager to explore West Cowes itself, we recommend <a href=\"https:\/\/www.smokinglobster.co.uk\/cowes\">Smoking Lobster Cowes<\/a> for great seafood, <a

The entire capital is bursting with legendary activities throughout August, but an absolute must-see event that will quite literally shake you to your core is the Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo. Set right on the massive stone esplanade outside the historic Edinburgh Castle, this nightly spectacular is a breathtaking blend of military pageantry, music and cultural performance. The name \u2018tattoo\u2019 actually traces back to an old 17th-century Dutch phrase, \u2018doe den tap toe\u2019, meaning \u2018turn off the taps\u2019, which was a signal for local tavern owners to stop serving beer so soldiers would head back to their barracks.<\/p>\n<p class=\"fade-in\">Since then, the tradition has evolved hugely throughout the centuries. Today it is a huge, high-energy global celebration that hosts around 800 performers each evening. The second the show begins, you are treated to a magnificent wall of sound as the Massed Pipes and Drums march across the drawbridge in perfect formation. Expect gorgeous tartan attire as well as state-of-the-art light projections cast against the iconic castle walls. While the show is still deeply rooted in Scottish heritage, the Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo is also a wonderfully warm gathering of nations, welcoming military bands, precision drill teams and cultural dancers from all across the globe.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"image-card image-card--md

This festival is home to everything from live music, comedy and performing arts to literature. You\u2019ll find yourself watching top-tier indie, folk and electronic acts on the Mountain Stage with the Black Mountains looming behind.<\/p>\n<p class=\"fade-in\">What makes Green Man extra special, though, is how much it embraces the wonderfully weird and family-friendly side of festival life. By day, you can wander through the woods to discover hidden art installations, grab a pint of locally brewed drink or check out interactive science experiments in Einstein\u2019s Garden.<\/p>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"section__article-col\" >\n\t\t\t<div class=\"section__heading\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h4 class=\"fade-in\">Stay nearby<\/h4>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<a

Held over the late August Bank Holiday weekend, this annual event transforms one of England\u2019s most stunning 11th-century fortresses into a roaring, lively arena. The legendary Knights of Nottingham take over the grounds, putting on a hard-hitting, fast-paced show filled with incredible horsemanship, thunderous lance clashes, and intense sword battles.<\/p>\n<p class=\"fade-in\">The best part is the atmosphere. The crowd gets fully invested, meaning you\u2019ll find yourself eagerly cheering or playfully booing the fearsome knights all throughout the day. Beyond the edge-of-your-seat combat, the event is packed with a wonderful, festival-like energy that keeps you entertained all day long. A crowd-favourite is the mischievous jester, Sir Frederick, whose quick wit and goofy antics are guaranteed to have both kids and adults in absolute stitches.<\/p>\n<p class=\"fade-in\">Tickets to the event also give you full access to explore the beautiful gardens and the castle itself, which is packed with 900 years of wild history (including the actual cell where King Edward II met his infamous end!). Whether you are a total history buff or just looking for a memorable day out with the family, packing a picnic and heading to Berkeley Castle is easily one of the most fun ways to spend a sunny August Bank Holiday.<\/p>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"section__article-col\" >\n\t\t\t<div class=\"section__heading\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h4 class=\"fade-in\">Stay nearby<\/h4>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<a
