If you’re looking for activities to enjoy in Northern Ireland this weekend, mark the Artitude Climate Festival in your calendar. The community-led celebration will come to the Playtrail in Londonderry from June 23–25 and a range of events have been announced as part of the schedule.

From foraging and nature walks to allotment openings and beekeeper workshops, connecting with nature comprises a key part of the festival. The spirit of creativity also serves as the backbone to the celebration and there will be storytelling, theatre performances and live music themed around climate change.
