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!
