Here are our top picks for the coming days:
1. Heritage Open Days
Once again dozens of buildings in Warwick district, some of which are not normally accessible to the public will be opening their doors for Heritage Open Days.
This year's event, which is part of England's largest festival of history and culture, runs until 17 September with more than 40 events, openings and tours taking place.
Highlights this year include the opening of Abbey Museum and Heritage Centre and the chance to look around St Nicholas Church.
The Lord Leycester in Warwick is also taking part with visitors able to book a free tour of the 900-year-old buildings following its multi-million-pound renovation.
2. Cinema
There is more cinema on offer in Kenilworth this weekend with 'Rudy' being shown at the Kenilworth Centre on Saturday (September 16).
Rudy is a film made in Coventry and in the Warwickshire countryside by Shona Auerbach and tells the story of the 15-year-old expected to fill the place of her mother.
She lives in the middle of the UK on a farm with her dad, sister and brother.
Things get all too much when her dad decides to open up the farm to lodgers. In order to escape she sneaks off to Coventry with her beloved skateboard, where she finds herself falling for Luke, another boarder.
Tickets cost £4.50 and you can bring your own snacks!
3. Taskmaster Education Live
There are still a few tickets remaining for Taskmaster Education Live at Warwick Arts Centre.
Starting at 2pm on Saturday, the live show is also raising money for charity.
Organisers said: "Join Little Alex Horne and the Taskmaster Education team for a day of family fun, where children can have a go at exciting tasks set up around campus and be in with the chance of joining Alex on stage for some action-packed, nonsensical Taskmaster fun in the live show.
"Families can arrive on campus from 11am and children of all ages are welcome to try their hand at the tasks.
"Then join us in the Butterworth Hall for 75 minutes of task-based hilarity!"
4. Warwick Comic Con and Gaming Festival
Head to NAEC Stoneleigh on Sunday for Warwick Comic Con and Gaming Festival 2023.
Featuring cosplay, film and TV guests as well as a host of games and stalls, the event is the latest in UKCGF's nationwide tour.
You can expect to see retro games, store-holders selling collectables, handmade sets and all things scifi, gaming and comic-related.
