1. Fun Fair
The Kenilworth Carnival fun gets started this weekend - ahead of the main weekend later this June.
This weekend will see the funfair head to Abbey Fields on Friday 19 June and stay until Sunday.
The Teddy Bear Picnic will also take place on Saturday in Abbey Fields from 2pm to 5pm.
"Join us for a fun-filled day of family entertainment, community spirit, and plenty of picnic fun," organisers said.
"Pack your picnic blanket, grab your cuddly companion, and enjoy a wonderful afternoon with friends and family in the heart of Kenilworth."

2. Repair Café
This Saturday (June 20) marks the return of Repair Café!
Get your broken items fixed and give them a second life.
Organisers said: "How is the gardening going, need your secateurs sharpening.
"Are you pedal ready for the summer holidays? Have you found parasols that need mending during the heatwave? Let's see if we can help you repair rather than replace those items.
"Of course, our brilliant team of volunteers will be on hand, in between eating cake, to help you fix things.
"Remember if you can carry it in or pedal it, we'll certainly have a look at it."
