Kae Tempest.
The Mercury-nominated UK poet and artist at the heritage Princess Theatre. The pick of Open Season's early-June bill, and the rare Sunday gig worth the late finish.

Cosy winter • Splurge
Sirromet Winter Fire Pit.
Your own private fire pit with a meat and cheese hamper and mulled wine as the sun drops over the vines. $189 for two, so split it and it is fair.
