We're all off to Wembley! -- and here are 10 other things to do this weekend
Que sera sera, we’re going to Wembley! That’s the song ringing out from Mansfield and Ashfield as we count down the hours to the Stags’ play-offs final
And it seems that every Tom, Dick and Harriet are their way to Wembley on Saturday, leaving Mansfield something of a ghost town.
However, some will be staying at home, and those that aren’t watching the game on TV may well be spending their weekend doing other things.
So here is our weekly guide to places to visit and activities and events to get stuck into.
With the latest school half-term coming up next week, and then the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee celebrations starting next Thursday for four days, there is plenty to look forward to.
Before you set off, please remember to visit the individual websites of each venue to check opening times and admission prices.
Have a great weekend! And come on you Stags!

It;s bingo, but not quite as you know it! For No Limits Bingo is the show heading for Mansfield's Apollo club on Saturday night (8.45 to 12.15), complete with top tunes, crowd karaoke, dance-offs, amazing lighting and bonkers prizes. Said to be "crazy, loud and intense", it's all hosted by TV and radio presenter Ryan Swain, with a DJ set by dance icons Phats and Small.

8. Jubilee photo exhibition
You'll have to pop into Nottingham for this one, but from this Friday until Sunday, June 5, the city's Old Market Square is hosting a large open-air photographic exhibition to mark the Queen's Platinum Jubilee. A collection of images shows the Queen's visits to the county over the years, and also reflects how times have changed since her Coronation in 1952.
