Here are our top picks for the coming days.

1. Tiltfest

A much‑loved Kenilworth pub is once again giving back to the community this June as its popular summer music festival, Tiltfest, returns.

Taking place at The Tiltyard on Saturday 6 June, the festival promises a full day of live music, great food and family‑friendly fun.

Pub owners Dave and Amanda Shipley have lined up a strong roster of performers and say this year's event is set to be the best yet.

"We've run Tiltfest a couple of times a year since taking over The Tiltyard, and it's always been a huge hit with customers," they told Nub News.

"The weather wasn't on our side last time, but it was still a fantastic day with a brilliant turnout. We're hoping for sunshine next weekend and for the community to come out and support us as they always do."

The festival kicks off at 1pm and runs through until 10.30pm, with live sets from Rise, Oasis tribute band The Masterplan, The Mighty Mixtape, Mixtape Rewind and Olivia Mac.

As ever, Tiltfest is completely free to attend.

2. Kenilworth Show

Thousands of visitors are set to celebrate the very best of local farming, food and rural life when the Kenilworth Show returns this weekend.

Coventry and Warwickshire's largest one-day agricultural show, which takes place on Stoneleigh Road, east of the A46, this Saturday, promises something for all ages from livestock competitions, classic cars and equestrian displays to family entertainment, live music on the Trailer Stage and hands-on countryside activities.

Main Ring attractions include a titanic tug of war tussle between Warwickshire Young Farmers and Coventry Rugby Club, crowd favourite Kangaroo Kid, whose daring motorcycle stunts are set to thrill, and the British Scurry and Trials Driving team, a headline arena act in the high-speed equestrian sport of scurry driving.

Visitors can also enjoy a traditional horse and dray from Hook Norton Brewery, the ever-popular Dog and Sheep Show and a vintage and modern machinery parade. With entertainment throughout the day, there will be plenty to keep the whole family entertained in and around the Main Ring.

3. Talisman Fringe

June's Fringe show promises to take audiences on a good old-fashioned day trip to the beach! A Day at the Seaside is packed with sketches and speeches celebrating our wonderful coast, all freshly written by Matthew Salisbury.

Wind-blown families, ocean-starers, postcard sellers and even seagulls all feature, alongside new songs, bespoke poetry and live art to add to the fun.

Chris Carpenter, Elli Lake, Dan Gough, Fergus Moseley and Dave Crossfield will all be braving the elements, with John Nichols taking the wheel as our trusty coach driver.

With performances at 7:30 pm and 9:00 pm, there are two chances to jump on board for this seaside adventure. So bring your sunhat and grab a lungful of seaside air!

Talisman Fringe returns to the Holiday Inn tonight (June 4).

4. Saturday Signing

A story first written by a ten-year-old boy for his younger sister nearly three decades ago is returning to Warwickshire as an award-nominated children's picture book.

British children's author Jonny Parry, who previously studied and worked in the Midlands and whose sister and family now live in Coventry, will appear at Kenilworth Books on Saturday 6 June for a special reading and signing event celebrating his debut picture book, How the Platypus Became.

Jonny first wrote the original version of the story by hand in 1998 as a gift for his younger sister.

Years later, the story has been reimagined as a professionally illustrated children's picture book "exploring curiosity, friendship and finding your place in the world" through one of nature's most unusual animals, the platypus.
