Fresh New Faces In Familiar Places, Events You Need To Attend To Wrap Up The Summer Season
Alas, summer is slowly coming to an end, and with it, most of our favourite summer parties. We will truly miss our weekly residences but that doesn’t mean you can’t catch them one last time before it’s over.
And as they always say, when one door closes…another opens! September is already jam-packed with festivals, gigs and other events that will keep you busy all month long.
So let’s get to it – our last weekly round-up of Summer 2k19.
