Play Among The Stars

The crew of Apollo 11 travelled 240,000 miles to get their tootsies moon-side before anyone else. To get to the Museum of the Moon you need venture no further than Summer in Southside, where the internally lit spherical sculpture with NASA-grade deets will be yours for the studying at The Arcadian  *and* will be accompanied by some silent disco-ing. The two-day lunar-themed festival of performance art, dance and music is taking place across Southside (the bit around the Hippodrome), the Bullring and Grand Central. Spy Urban Astronaught, springing around the sites (literally, using a harness and flying machine). Also in town, a fallen asteroid, a very pink intergalactic invasion and something called The Heliosphere — a balloon-like structure from which an artist will be suspended in the air and able to dip into the crowd controlled by a team on the ground — hold onto your ice-creams if you spot this one. This weekend and free. From 11am, Saturday and Sunday. Full programme
