Dance outdoors at Glas-Denbury – Devon’s answer to the infamous Glastonbury festival. Following a two- year pandemic break preparations are well underway for this lovely little boutique festy on the weekend of
July 16 to 18. As the name implies it’s in Denbury, between Totnes and Newton Abbot. This very family-friendly event has a great eclectic mix of music, arts, and crafts in its distinctive candy-striped marquees, including children’s entertainers, silent discos and bars stocked with local beers. I even saw Basil Brush there one year – and was star struck meeting him afterwards! Glas-Denbury picked up Visit Devon’s Gold for Festival of the Year 2019 and 2018, so grab a ticket and see you there!

Visit your local cinema! For those who’ve missed the big screen, grab some tickets, overpriced drinks
and snacks (we need to do our bit to help businesses who’ve almost disappeared these last two years!) and head down to a local picture house. Vue in Exeter and Plymouth are selling tickets for blockbusters at 1990s prices in an effort to get people through the door – and there’s a new Top Gun film releasing this summer. Or support a rich range of local independents – The Flavel in Dartmouth, Kings Cinema in Kingsbridge, Totnes Cinema, Dartington’s Barn Cinema, Exeter Picturehouse or Plymouth Arts Cinema for new releases, independent films, and world cinema.

And, while you’re feeling brave, check out what’s on at the local theatre too! Amazingly our Devon theatres have survived the pandemic behind locked doors, and
now actors, musicians and comedians are desperate to get back on stage - so the listings are filling up. Plymouth’s Theatre Royal is hosting the marvellous Les Misérables, Chicago and Singin’ in the Rain; Torquay’s Princess Theatre has Footloose and Shrek The Musical touring this summer; and Exeter’s Northcott Theatre, an interesting looking Extraordinary Bodies’ circus-based show called Human, and many, many more.

Have ‘A Perfect Day’ at Powderham Castle with David Gray, James Morrison, Tom Odell, Gabrielle and The
Shires. This new live event has been waiting to launch in the glorious grounds of Powderham Castle and is now ready to go on July 3. Multi- award wining singer David Gray celebrates 20 years since the release of his huge album White Ladder and
joins the other hit makers on stage against the
backdrop of the castle, woodland and deer park alongside the Exe estuary just outside Exeter. Take a break from the music and have a wonder around the castle grounds too – at 600 years old it’s one of England’s oldest stately homes and currently home to the 18th Earl and Countess of Devon
