Welcome ye, seekers of sun Not typically associated with a summer's break, York is in fact the sunniest place in Britain. Stay with us on this, okay? Although you might think somewhere on the south coast would lay claim to most sunshine across the year, that accolade actually goes to Parliament Street in the heart of York. Extensive research was undertaken to arrive at that conclusion; research paid for by the shops on Parliament Street, coincidentally.

Make what you will of that, but there is no denying that York is a fantastic place to

spend a sunny day/weekend/ week/fortnight/month.

Although we're known for our fascinating history, exciting sights, interesting attractions, and friendly locals, we're also famous for never stopping... not even in the blazing midday sun of July.

As well as the sunshine, York is awash with stuff going on.

Everywhere you turn you'll find something to suit; from a fun day of science at the National Railway Museum, to an afternoon spent lost in a huge corn field at York Maze. As well as those two big-hitters, you

can relax at a show in one of the theatres, thrash your head about at a gig, or tip-toe quietly around York Minster. Whatevs.

It's a good job we're here, as once again this very issue of What's On is crammed full of the best events listing. If it ain't listed in here, it ain't worth going to. Unless its some sort of secret speak-easy club, in which case email us the password and we'll meet you there.

W hatever you get up, have a great July!

Get in touch.... we would love to hear from you! Visit whatsoninyork.org RACHAEL 01904 735218 rachael@yourlocallink.co.uk

It's all very well stealing from the rich to give to the poor, but when you have no sense of direction then mayhem ensues!

Robin Hood is lost in Sherwood Forest. It's not his fault; there are a lot of trees. But once again it falls to Maid Marian to save the day and get him and the Merry Men out of a scrape. They may wear the tights, but Marian knows what really makes a hero.

A summer swashbuckling show for all the family as the team of actor puppeteers re-tell this classic story of heroism, valour, and the power of legendary teamwork with songs, slapstick and spectacle.
