 |  | …launch of Bowie, Glastonbury 2000 this Friday, showcasing his acclaimed 21-song headline set for the first time, this week it’s all about Bowie. We miss you David! We’re also feeling like a bit of a treat; and Skate and Stay (combining skating at Somerset House with a night at One Aldywch) sounds like a good place to start. Further afield we’re thinking of getting our dance on at Art Basel Miami and DGTL Madrid, and heading over to Ibiza to decorate a tree at Casa Maca’s inaugural Christmas market. For Thanksgiving this year it seemed like a lot of our NY-based friends were headed to Holbox – definitely on the UJdar – and lastly, Claridge’s launched their DVF-designed tree today (with an 8.30am Champagne breakfast no less – we love), which is always a festive highlight. Salut!

| | | Art Basel Miami Beach | | | Pre-NYE Partying | | | Three cities, three parties | | | We know it’s a busy time of year, but we think there’s still time for one last international rave before NYE. Didn’t get tickets to Circoloco at Printworks? Book in for Circoloco in Tulum with Seth Troxler, Damian Lazarus and William Djoko instead – partying all night in a cenote sounds good to us. We’ve also heard good things about DGTL in Madrid (The Black Madonna, DJ Koze, John Talabot), and Art Basel Miami is always a party – check out our highlights, including The Martinez Brothers, Peggy Gou, Virgil Abloh and Bob Moses.

 |  | | Brick House Bakery | | | If there was ever a time of year for indulging in baked goods, it’s when the cold sets in. So after coming across their bakery on our visit to Levan last week (it’s next door) we thought it was about time we caught up with Sharmin and Fergus Jackson. Keep reading to find out where to go for the best pastries, and discover some hidden south London gems.
| | Where do you go for baked goods in London?
For pastries, Little Bread Peddler takes some beating. For bread, either The Dusty Knuckle for their potato sourdough, or The Snapery for their Field Loaf.

| Hotel Spy | |  | | | | Zuri Zanzibar | | | A tropical retreat | | | Zanzibar seems to be on everyone’s radar at the moment – and with the new Zuri Zanzibar opening there recently (private beach, a spice garden to explore and a short trip to the UNESCO protected Stone Town), we think it might be time for a visit.

| | | Sponsored Listing | | | RSC London Season | | | A season of contemporary Shakespeare at the Barbican | | | December feels like the perfect time for a theatre trip, and if you’re not one for the traditional festive productions, try out the Royal Shakespeare Company’s current season at the Barbican instead. Make sure you book in before 19th January as Polly Findlay directs Christopher Eccleston and Niamh Cusack in a dark production of Macbeth, RSC Deputy Artistic Director Erica Whyman returns to the Barbican for Romeo and Juliet and Fiona Laird directs hilarious comedy The Merry Wives of Windsor (with more than a hint of reality TV). Want a preview of what to expect? Watch the trailer here.
