JULY
Alongside the
Commonwealth Games,
GLASGOW
’s playing
host to a £4m (€4.8m)
cultural festival
(
glasgow2014.com
).
Come for enough avant-
garde art, interactive
theatre and outdoor
spectacles to rival
Edinburgh’s annual
extravaganza. There’s
also some sport and
stuff... If you like that
kind of thing.
AUGUST
Autum in Kosovo sounds like a bad
Albanian film (and – fun fact – in
The
Simpsons
, it once was), but tourism-
wise, Europe’s youngest country is
coming into its own. Fly to
PRISTINA,
then head to Prizren, where charming
culture and hospitality – not to mention
€2 drinks – make an unusual weekender.
DECEMBER
After a recent overload of glühwein, next year we’re
eschewing the winter wonderland Xmas-market schtick
for a souk-tastic excursion to
AGADIR
. Moroccan
sunshine + exotic gifts + end-of-year tan. It makes sense.
NOVEMBER
Always one of our favourite
places,
BERLIN
will erupt into
celebration at the end of the
year for the 25
th
anniversary of
Mauerfall
(the Wall's collapse).
Will David Hasselhoff be back
to perform on its remaining
fragments? Alas,
probably not. But
it’s bound to spark
a pretty big party.
And if there’s
one thing this
city knows how
to do…
SEPTEMBER
Ibiza's closing parties
can be a bit same old.
This year we’d opt
for Unknown Festival
(
unknown croatia.com
;
fly to
Zagreb
) instead
for beats, boat parties
and blissful Balkan
sunrises.
OCTOBER
If rumours are
true, location
scouts for the
third
Sex and
the City
movie
have been
all over the
Pelopponese.
We’ll be
sneaking
to
Kalamata
before the
Blahnik-shod
invasion.
