The Official Comedy Club — Aspers Casino

Saturday 25th March — www.aspersnorthampton.co.uk

Who doesn’t like a cheeky laugh on a Saturday night? Each of their shows features 3 comedians and promises a night of great entertainment. Plus you can get a student ticket price of £10 — bargain!

Vintage Fair — Market Harborough

1st April - https://www.facebook.com/events/1382029468521251/

For all those who love a vintage find, make your way to The Three Swans Hotel for this fair of 40 stalls. While you are in Market Harborough it is worth having a wonder as there are many independent shops and places to eat. It is a bit of a drive away but could be well worth it if you pick up something good.

Death Of A Salesman — Royal & Derngate

8th — 29th April — https://www.royalandderngate.co.uk/whats-on

If you fancy a bit of culture at the end of the Spring holiday you can pop down to the Royal and Dergnate theatre and watch a play. Widely considered to be one of the greatest plays of the twentieth century, Arthur Miller’s, Death Of A Salesman is about the cost of not being able to let go of the American Dream.

Milton Keynes

Costing less than £10, trains run straight from Northampton to MK station, which is a short walk from the shopping centre. All the shops are inside so you wont get wet if the English weather fails us this holiday. Plus there is a cinema, indoor snow zone, bowling, rock climbing, theatre , cocktail bars, clubs and restaurants so you can make a real day of it.

Go to a Cobblers game
