If you’re spending it with friends:
Day: Prosecco Picnic.
Pack all picnic essentials and plenty of prosecco. Get all the squad together and head down to your local park for a cheap and cheerful day.
Keep the tone chilled with the tunes playing or amp up the fun and play a drunken game of rounders.
Night: Rooftop Party.
It’s not officially a bank holiday till you’ve spent an evening getting boozy on a rooftop bar – shades on and cocktail in hand.
If you’re on a budget go for one cocktail and don’t forget to get a picture of you with the sparkling skyline in the background.
If you’re spending it with bae:
Day: Romantic day trip.
Take a break from your modern relationship and keep things traditionally romantic.
Whether you want to go for a punt tour along the Cambridge river, for a coastal walk in Dorset or a boat trip in the Lake District, keep romance the theme.
Night: Dinner date.
Being in a relationship you’re obviously no stranger to going for a meal with bae.
Switch things up and go to that new fancy restaurant everyone is going on about. Go that extra mile, visit a new city and spend the night there.
If you’re spending it with the fam:
Day: Beach day.
Get ready to bask in the British heat. The bank holiday heat is perfect for a last minute trip to the seaside with your fam.
Whether you’re looking for a secluded spot or a busy beach, do your research to find the perfect stretch of sand for you
Night: Game night.
Get all your family together at yours for a good old-fashioned game night. From Articulate to Pictionary and Charades, there are plenty of games to keep you occupied all night.
Go all out and get into character to host a murder mystery night.
