    Weekly Recommendation: 6th June 2025

    To Do

    Go see: Bad Girls at Lancaster Grand Theatre – the first week of shows kicks off on Friday 13th! Buy tickets here.

    To Eat

    Try Holm’s Chocolate Cronuts – very naughty, but very nice!

    It’s Holm’s 5th Birthday celebration today and tomorrow and they’re doing some fun giveaways to celebrate!

    Added Bonus

    King Charles III is visiting Lancaster Castle on Monday June 9th. If that’s your kind of thing, you can go and see the royal party arrive/leave the castle, and part of the ceremony of the keys.

    Even if it’s not your thing, be aware that there will be road closures/car park closures on the day and in the days leading up to the event, so if you’re planning to be in/around Lancaster 6th-10th June, make sure you check your route/parking/access etc.
