Forget the usual hotspots—travellers are setting their sights on alternative escapes, and Reggio Calabria is leading the charge!

With searches for alternative European destinations up over 40% this year, it's clear that UK travellers are looking beyond the mainstream. And with new budget flights, Reggio Calabria is easier than ever to explore. Picture waterfront strolls along the Lungomare Falcomatà, mouthwatering Calabrian cuisine, and views across the Strait of Messina to Sicily. A little off the beaten track, but packed with charm—this is Italy, undiscovered.

Tonight’s Education.

The last time I saw an ice Hockey game it was the Dundee Rockets around 40 years ago!!

I’m sure this will be just the same as the atmosphere created at the old Kingsway Ice Rink.

So looking forward to this, Americans know how to put a show on.

Remember we can either get tickets or at least point you in the right direction to get them for pretty much all sporting events
