As us Brits struggle under the heat of August, because let's face it, we're not used to it, it's time to make the most of the summertime in the UK.
Whether you're looking for cultural experiences, thrilling adventures, or simply relaxation, my list has got you covered.
Here are seven exciting activities to enjoy this August in the UK:
1. Outdoor Cinema Nights under the Stars
What better way to spend a summer evening than watching a classic movie under the stars with friends or loved ones? Many venues across the UK offer open-air cinema nights in August, providing a magical experience with a backdrop of the night sky. Grab a blanket, some popcorn, and immerse yourself in the cinematic adventure. Take a look at Notts Maze for some options
2. Art and Culture Festivals
August is the month for art and culture enthusiasts in the UK. Attend vibrant festivals showcasing music, art, and performances that celebrate creativity. Explore local galleries, street art, and live performances that add a touch of colour and vibrancy to your summer days. If you're in Nottingham Holographic Byron sounds interesting!
3. Wellness Retreats in Nature
Escape the hustle and bustle of daily life by indulging in a wellness retreat in the serene landscapes of the UK. From yoga and meditation retreats to spa getaways, treat yourself to some well-deserved relaxation and rejuvenation. Embrace the natural beauty around you and immerse yourself in self-care. A couple of my personal favourites are Ye Olde Bell Spa & Aqua Sana.

For the adventurous souls, August is the perfect time to explore the great outdoors. Embark on trails that lead to breathtaking views, or simply go for a picnic. Engaging in outdoor activities is not only exhilarating but also a great way to stay active and connect with nature.
