With the amazing sunshine in recent days, we thought weโ€™d let you know some interesting activities happening that you might not be aware of in Wolverhampton.

The Express & Star has been exploring some of the spectacular activities. We think are they are worth doing doing especially if youโ€™re slumped on ideas on how best to spend the weekend.

Without further ado, here are four activities worth doing in Wolverhampton:

1. ย Geek Market

Geek out at that geek market. You can test your skills in their firing range. You can meet some cosplayers, some photo opportunities. But what's better? You get to meet the real stormtroopers. May the force be with you.

2. Craft Fair at Silver Spur pub

Fun craft fair at a local pub perfect for all the family. The pubโ€™s landlord, Wally told the us what visitors can expect.

He said: โ€œOn Bank Holiday Monday, From 12pm until 5pm. We've got a craft fair in the car park. Several stalls going on, we've got a bouncy castle for the kids. We've got a food stall. A wagon, an ice cream van. We're also doing a charity here that's been donated by local businesses, because we're trying to raise money for a defibrillator to put outside the pub. I think that's really important.โ€
