Alternatively check out the circus performers particularly Kamelyan, who becomes a human harp in front of your eyes with the help of a few body piercing techniques and what's more you can play her! Or perhaps you'd rather re-enact Woodstock and dance under the sun in front of a 1973 Volkswagon Camper Van, if so the Gurn boys have got everything you need! Or if your mad enough get yourself to the fair and sample the bungee or the Drop Tower or knock your mates out at the Superbowl!
