2012 is going to be a classic - and Cheshire is going to be right at the heart of the action as Britain gets ready for the biggest party in its history.
The Olympic Torch Relay wends its way across our area in May bringing the flame that will get the London 2012 Olympics underway.
The Queen's Diamond Jubilee knocks on our door twice as Her Majesty visits both Warrington and Chester as part of the celebrations to mark the 60th anniversary of her accession to the throne in 1952.
The party gets well and truly into full swing this month with three of our biggest festivals for Easter.
Nantwich stages its annual fiesta of Jazz, Blues and Music, Chester hosts its Food, Drink and Lifestyle extravaganza, while Chester Zoo brings back its pack of prehistoric monsters with Dinosaurs Bite Back!
Look out for a host of special Cheshire 2012 events throughout the year.
What's On will be in the thick of the action every month and will be changing its cover style to mark what promises to be a spellbinding year.
