Hello,

This week in iweekend, we have a comprehensive guide to this summer's best festivals - in the UK and beyond. From Field Day (Skepta, Jorja Smith, Diplo) to the Isle of Wight (Noel Gallagher, George Ezra, Lily Allen), Barcelona's Primavera Sound (Robyn, James Blake) to Denmark's Roskilde (Bob Dylan, Cardi B), we have you covered.

We also have 10 ways to cook asparagus, as the British season gets going, top tips on late spring flowers that don't mind a little shade, and a look at the new Zac Efron-as-Ted Bundy film, "Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile".

In Travel, we have the best new routes opening this summer, including Manchester to Montego Bay and Edinburgh to Boston. We also join the yogis, mountain lions and aliens in California's Joshua Tree, and reveal how to get the best out of a weekend away in this year's co-European Capital of Culture, Plovdiv in Bulgaria.

In Money, we ask which is better for your cash: an ISA or a savings account? And we look at the increasing number of over-55s struggling with the costs of living in privately rented homes.

Elsewhere, we meet Megan Swann, one of just a handful of female magicians accepted into the Magic Circle, and explore the ways in which the London Marathon, which takes place on Sunday, is becoming greener, including handing out "edible" water bottles made from seaweed extract.

Plus, as always, there's our popular puzzles pull-out, handy 7-day TV guide, insightful comment section on the week's biggest topics and useful money advice.

Whatever you are doing, we hope you have a wonderful weekend.
