2. King's Banquet

A grand banquet thrown 400 years ago in honour of King James I is to be recreated in the Great Hall of Warwick's Lord Leycester this weekend, giving 100 lucky guests a chance to enjoy a unique evening fit for royalty. 

Tickets are still available for the special event on 21 September, which includes a four-course feast, traditional drinks, entertainment and free costume hire for the night. 

The Lord Leycester, which sits in the heart of Warwickshire's county town and is one of the most significant medieval sites in Europe, is recreating the banquet hosted by the Earl of Warwick for King James I when the King visited in 1617.

At the time the three-day feast was a huge honour for the town but with no expense spared, it left Warwick in debt for 10 years afterwards.  

The Lord Leycester is now giving people the chance to relive the famous banquet - but for one night only, rather than three days - when it stages the Lord Leycester King James I Banquet in the venue's half-timbered medieval hall.

Head to St Nicholas Park on Sunday for the return of the Dragon Boat Festival - raising money for Myton Hospice.

Rotary Club of Warwick Avon and Warwick Boats are bringing back its popular community event on Sunday September 24, with up to 26 boats set to hit the River Avon.

Each boat will have up to 16 paddlers and a drummer, with many of the teams coming kitted out in fancy dress.

Heats will see two boats race along the 200 metre course, and every team will take part in at least three races.

The four fastest teams will then battle it out to be crowned the winners.
