November has definitely come in with a bang! We’ve already had a few doses of the white stuff, and if you’ve stepped inside any shop in the city you’ll be reminded that the holiday’s are just around the corner.
It’s easy to get swept up in the pre-holiday rush, so take a step back and take advantage of some of November’s events before December madness kicks in! Below you’ll find a list of a few highlight events that we’re most looking forward to:
