We were kindly invited to press night at Theatre Royal Portsmouth and were treated to an outstanding evening of festive entertainment.

We were lucky enough to be invited to the press night of Aladdin at the Kings Theatre Portsmouth this evening, and honestly… I’m still so dazzled I’m not quite sure where to begin! Everyone who follows our family adventures knows how much we adore the Kings, but there is something uniquely magical about the Pompey Panto every single year. And this year’s offering didn’t just deliver that magic, it sprinkled it absolutely everywhere.

This year, we fancied going somewhere different for our annual pumpkin-picking adventure and wow, are we glad we did! After hearing so many amazing things about Sunnyfields Farm in Southampton, we decided to give it a try. The final push? When we heard they had created a massive pumpkin portrait tribute to Ozzy Osbourne! We’re huge Osbourne fans, so that completely sold it for us. 

This October half term, we set off on a fun-filled autumn adventure to Pumpkinville at Gunwharf Quays! We weren't sure what to expect in all honestly but actually it turned out to be one of our favourite seasonal outings yet!

We were absolutely thrilled to be invited to watch Ministry of Science Live at the New Theatre Royal in Portsmouth yesterday. Having heard glowing reviews from its London run over the summer, we couldn’t wait to see what all the buzz was about and it did not disappoint!

We had been desperate to visit the Jurassic World Exhibition London ever since it returned in May! We sadly missed its first visit to London last year, so when it came back, we were thrilled. We booked it as a special pre back-to-school treat and have been looking forward to it all summer.

As soon as The Minecraft Experience London was announced, it wasn’t a question of if we were going – it was when! My 10-year-old is a massive fan of the game and all things Minecraft. To be honest, my husband loves playing it too! As for me… well, I’m completely clueless but always up for an adventure!

We’ve always loved the Back to the Future movies (who doesn’t?), so when the stage musical version landed in London’s West End, it immediately went on our must see list. After keeping an eye on ticket prices through a few theatre apps, I struck gold on TodayTix , they were running a special offer and I managed to grab front row seats for just £55 each. Bargain! Since it was already on our summer holiday to do list, it felt like fate.

Tonight, we had the absolute privilege of being invited to attend the opening night of Bring It On, staged by The Kings School of Performing Arts (KSPA) at the Kings Theatre in Southsea.

We were kindly invited to attend press night at The Kings Theatre, Portsmouth, for CCSADS’ amateur production of The Band. As big supporters of local theatre, it’s always a pleasure to see community groups bringing stories to life on stage — especially in such a beloved venue.

With the sun finally showing up and spring in full swing, we decided it was time to shake off the cobwebs and head down to Clarence Pier for a chilled seaside evening. While we were there, we couldn’t resist finally checking out a local gem that’s been on our radar for ages—the Upside Down House Portsmouth!
