The Halle: Classic Movie Thrillers
Royal Concert Hall
Saturday 14 April
If you’ve ever seen clips of a movie before the soundtrack has been applied you will know how profoundly music can change the atmosphere of a scene, and throughout the years many soundtracks have become legendary in encapsulating the entire mood of a film. Shostakovich’s Jazz Suite No 2 from Eyes Wide Shut, Schifrin’s Mission Impossible and John William’s Jaws are just a few of the titles being performed at the Royal Concert Hall this weekend, brought to life by Manchester’s Symphony Orchestra The Hallé. A grand evening for anyone who appreciates the tension of the thriller genre or the bombastic grandiosity of a live orchestra performance!

Beer & Cheese Tasting Session
School of Artisan Food
Sunday 15 April | 12:45pm - 3:00pm
Forget the wheel, penicillin and Netflix – beer and cheese are probably two of the best inventions ever made. At the prestigious School of Artisan Food, over at The Welbeck Estate in Worksop, they know a thing or two about both, and this weekend they are inviting you to come and taste, pair and brush up on your fromage and ale.
A great taster if you ever want to book onto one of the amazing day courses, such as their Home Dairy Skills day, and a brilliant excuse to pick up some goodies at the Welbeck Farm Shop too!
Further dates are available so check the listing here if you miss your chance!
15 year Anniversary Rock Art Celebration Event
Creswell Crags
Saturday 14th April
Some artists never find fame in their lifetime, but few have to wait as long as the caveman at Creswell Crags. Despite having been sat waiting for over 12,000 years, it was just in 2003 that Britain’s only known Ice Age cave art was discovered, and in the past fifteen years the site has blossomed into a fantastic museum and space to learn about the area during the Ice Age.
Check out animal skulls, tools and other findings in the exhibitions, book onto a tour of the caves before taking a leisurely stroll around the lake and crags. Plus this Saturday only Dr Paul Bahn, one of the original team to discover the engravings, will be on site giving talks.
