Summer is winding down, but there's still plenty of time to make the most of it. If you're planning the perfect August Bank Holiday in Sussex, we've put together a guide to the very best ways to spend the long weekend.

From the site of the Battle of Hastings in 1066 to grand castles, military forts and royal residences, the county is home to some of the most famous historical places in Sussex. If history had a greatest hits album, Sussex would certainly feature heavily.

Hackney Wick has become one of East London’s most exciting neighbourhoods, known for its canalside living, creative energy and growing mix of independent food and drink spots.

With the bank holiday around the corner, Brighton and Shoreham-by-Sea really come into their own, with festivals, markets and community events filling up the calendar (and making staying in feel like a missed opportunity).

From sweeping skyline scenes to quiet, wooded hills, it offers some of the best views South London has to offer, often without the crowds you’ll find in more central spots (a rare win for London, really).

Here are five standout Easter events in East Sussex to add to your plans.

Whether you’re fully embracing a vegan lifestyle or simply curious about plant-based eating, Bethnal Green has quietly become one of East London’s most exciting areas for vegan food.

From Burgess Park to Hackney Marshes, London parkruns offer something for everyone, whatever your pace or experience.

Here are five of the best spots to explore this month.
