Here are our top picks for the coming days.

1. Grand Medieval Day Out

'A Grand Medieval Day Out' is set to return to Kenilworth Castle this Early May Bank Holiday.

Taking place on Sunday 5 and Monday 6 May 2024, this event will bring together troupes of reenactors – including tradespeople, knights, and musicians – in a living history village within the grounds of the 900-year-old castle.

Live arena shows will take place through the day alongside musical accompaniment from the Middle Ages played by costumed musicians and a daring court jester delighting audiences with his tomfoolery.

2. Cinema Night

Kenilworth's independent cinema once again returns this Saturday (May 4).

'Till' is coming to the Talisman Theatre - get your tickets now!

'Till' is a profoundly emotional and cinematic film about the true story of Mamie Till-Mobley's relentless pursuit of justice for her 14 year old son, Emmett Till, who, in 1955, was lynched while visiting his cousins in Mississippi.

Mamie fights back and determinedly pursues a legal process against a profoundly prejudiced judicial system. In Mamie's poignant journey of grief turned to action, we see the universal power of a mother's ability to change the world.
