The Surreal House will feature art, film and architecture from various artists including Giorgio De Chirico, Joseph Cornell, Salvador Dali, Marcel Duchamp, Edward Hopper and Rene Magritte. 

Experience English culinary delights this summer with Eat! NewcastleGateshead food festival - in its fourth year, running from 12-27 June. One of Britain?s leading food and drink festivals, EAT! champions local food producers, restaurants and culinary talent through a programme of events. 

Furthermore, Pembrokeshire Fish Week will takes place June 26 to July 4, along the Pembrokeshire coast in West Wales, with more than 200 events including gourmet tastings, cookery demonstrations, guided river kayak trips, eco-fishing adventures, angling competitions, windsurfing and sailing sessions, and many more.  Throughout the week restaurants, pubs, cafes and bars will offer special menus offering fish dishes from fish tapas to freshly dressed local crab salads, and seafood chowders.  

Now it?s time for beer lovers to raise a glass in celebration for Celebrating BEER! - The National Brewery Centre is to open in late spring at Burton-upon-Trent, Staffordshire. The centre will include a national brewing museum and a visitor centre that explains the UK?s influence on the world?s brewing techniques.  The exhibits will be interactive, with actors, animatronics, holograms and multimedia technology. The actors will be in character to help make the experience as authentic as possible. There will be a vintage vehicle collection including a working steam engine. There will also be master-classes for over-18s on the different tastes of beer based on ingredients and brewing processes, and how to match different foods with beers. And there will be a traditional pub on the site.

Britain remains a major brewing country and the importance of beer ? its past, present and future ? will be promoted by the museum. All beer lovers should raise a glass in celebration.
