There's also a Winter Wonderland area with rides, games and a big wheel, and the fabulous Christmas in Bute Park light trail, which leaves you feeling transported to another world. Buy Christmas at Bute Park tickets from £16.50 at See Tickets How to travel to Christmas markets on a budget Now that you've picked the Christmas market of your winter wonderland dreams from the list above, you'll need to figure out how to get there. Driving is always an option, but with the cost of petrol and potential traffic jams, taking public transport is possibly the simplest way to get to your destination. How to get cheap train tickets Unlike Chris Rea, we have no desire to sit in traffic. So we’re taking public transport to a Christmas market this year, primarily trains. Train operators offer timetables 12 weeks in advance, so it's best to book tickets as close to this 12 week window as possible. Railcards are a fantastic way to save money on train tickets; they help you save up to ⅓ of the cost, with an average saving of £142 per year. There are Railcards for lots of different people, from the 16-25 Railcard and Senior Railcard, to Two Together Railcard and Disabled Persons Railcard. Buy a Railcard from £30 at Railcard Buy train tickets at Trainline How to get cheap coach tickets Travelling by coach is one of the RadioTimes.com team’s favourite ways to get around the UK. It’s cheap, there’s a toilet, and hardly anyone travels by coach (probably because it adds time to your journey in comparison to taking the train) so you usually have two seats to yourself. In our experience, Megabus is the cheapest coach company to use, especially if you’re booking tickets last minute. Megabus travels between over 90 intercity destinations across the UK, and there’s the option to reserve your seat, too, just like on a train. Buy coach tickets at Megabus Christmas market breaks If you’re travelling from city to city for a Christmas market, you may want to consider an overnight stay. Plus, if you haven’t visited that city before, it’s a great way to pack in some sightseeing. Wowcher and Airbnb are great places to look for overnight stays in your chosen city. Wowcher usually offers an overnight stay at a top four star hotel, plus breakfast, whereas with Airbnb, you can choose what kind of home you'd like for the night. Check out Christmas market breaks 2024 at Wowcher Book an overnight stay at Airbnb If you’re planning on venturing further afield, for example to somewhere in Europe, lastminute.com and EasyJet offer Christmas market packages, too.

Glastonbury 2021: How to watch Live At Worthy Farm on TV
All the details on the exciting virtual event: Live At Worthy Farm as it heads to television.
Much to the dismay of music fans everywhere, Glastonbury was cancelled for the second year running in 2021 due to the coronavirus pandemic. However, that doesn't mean that there wouldn't be any performances at all, and instead organisers Michael and Emily Eavis organised a virtual event from the site in Pilton, Somerset. Filmed across Worthy Farm including at iconic locations such as the Pyramid Field and the Stone Circle, the livestream took place in May 2021 and supported Glastonbury’s three main charitable partners Oxfam, Greenpeace and WaterAid, as well as helping to secure the festival’s return in 2022. Now the recorded livestream is heading to television - meaning new performances from the likes of Coldplay, HAIM and Damon Albarn will soon be available for all to enjoy from the comfort of our much less muddy homes.

Well, my book is about a. passion, too. I fell in love with a painting and wanted to retell the story of how it came to be. At its heart, my book is a love story.
