Here are our top picks for the coming days:

1. Warwick Pursuits

A new free community festival that proved a hit in Stratford-upon-Avon is to come to Warwick - bringing live music, food, drinks, workshops, demonstrations, and more.

Warwick Pursuits festival is a two-day event celebrating music, art and culture, with an array of activities for families to enjoy for free.

Organised by Slate Events - the same people behind Leamington Spa's Art in the Park - the event will take place in St Nicholas Park in Warwick on June 22 and 23.

Its arrival in Warwick comes after a Stratford version of the event held in May proved a huge success, attracting thousands of people across two days.

2. Triumph Picnic

Following the success of last year's Centenary celebrations at Walton Hall, a huge array of classic cars will head to Woodland Grange at Leamington Spa on Sunday 23 June.

Organised by the Pre-1940 Triumph Motor Club, the day promises to be a celebration of heritage!

"We encourage you to bring your treasured Triumph and Standard cars and join us for a relaxed day in their manicured grounds," organisers said.

"For those not bringing a picnic, you can look forward to hot pork rolls from a local hog-roaster, good coffee and a lady selling lovely farm fresh ice creams. Those not owning a Triumph or Standard car are also welcome."
