Back at Kenwood House for another year, HowTheLightGetsIn is the world's biggest festival of music and philosophy. Performers, philosophers, and political figures come together at this weekend-long event of entertainment and deep thinking, covering areas as diverse as art, politics, and medicine. Event tickets grant you access to the huge range of talks, debates, performances, and activities taking place throughout the festival.

A range of workshops and discussions aimed specifically at children and teens are also taking place to make the festival even more inclusive. Major names participating in the event include David Baddiel, Rory Stewart, and Alastair Campbell, plus there's Badly Drawn Boy headlining the musical acts. Added to that, there are a varied range of vendors for food, drinks, and shopping. If you want to be inspired as well as entertained then this festival is a great way to spend the weekend.
