Keep On Truckin’

Monster trucks and massive kites. It's kicking off in New Brighton this weekend.

We love a peripatetic interactive architecture exhibition, we do. So imagine our delight to see the Architruck rumble back into the region as part of the RIBA Architecture Festival. The truck’s a mobile storehouse of building design goodness. Could it get any better? Well, yes, actually, it could. The Truck’s due to make an appearance at the always-excellent Wirral Kite Festival, in New Brighton. Here, should discussions with roving architects about your planned garage extension start to pall, you can enjoy getting snagged up by the world’s foremost kite runners. Heck, if the moment grabs you, you can throw caution - and a new kite - to the wind, and enroll on their kite making workshop. Kiting doesn’t get any better than this.

Wirral Kite Festival, 12-13 June, The Dips, New Brighton
RIBA Architecture Festival 2010: 1 - 26 June
