Cathedrals and castles are among the stunning settings preparing to host some late spring and early summer treats guaranteed to suit those looking for something a bit different to the usual.
Tickets are on sale now for a range of special events and shows in the North East which include a one-off talk in a Bamburgh Castle in Northumberland which will bring its own history to life and a stunning moving light show inside Durham Cathedral. Other locations - every bit as special as the events they host - include The Keep in Newcastle and Gateshead's world-class music centre.
Among the events on offer are Proms concerts, film screenings and tours which will certainly make a change from the usual outing or a routine trip to the pub. With the weather finally improving enough to encourage even the most dedicated couch potato outdoors, now is the time to make the most of the last of spring and start of summer.
