Whether you’re exhausted from work or have been up since 5am entertaining the kids, gearing yourself up to go out on a weeknight can often be a challenge. Sure, socialising and doing fun things on Saturdays and Sundays is great, but life is simply too short to put off enjoying yourself until the weekend.

Now we’re not saying that you have to be out every night to be having a good time. Sometimes a nice quiet evening watching your favourite show and being tucked up in bed by nine o’clock is exactly what you need. But, letting yourself enjoy a bit of weeknight entertainment could actually help you feel refreshed and could remind you that life is not all about waking up, rushing to work, coming home, eating and then repeating it all over again!

So if you fancy shaking up your weeknights, here are some ideas to get you out and about in your local area.

Test your Trivia

Grab a few mates and test your general knowledge at a trivia night on every Wednesday at 7pm at Regents Park Sports Club. Again, this is a stress-free and casual event with some friendly competition. It’s a great way to exercise your competitive muscles and it’s also an opportunity to socialise with friends and meet new people.

Dining in Regents Park

Everyone’s got to eat, right? Take away the stress and hard work out of making dinner for you and the family by dining out once in a while. It doesn’t have to be a fancy seven-course meal and it doesn’t have to break the bank. It could be something low-key like a Regents Park cafe or some casual dining from a menu that suits everyone at our Regents Park Bowling Club Bistro.

The change of scenery will be refreshing, it will give you some quality time with friends and family, and there’ll be no washing up to worry about after!

Belt Out A Classic

What better way to entertain yourself (and others) on a weeknight than grabbing a mic and singing your heart out! Regents Park Sports Club offers free Karaoke every Friday night. It’s a fun way to help relieve stress and an exciting way to start off your weekend. So swing by and step up into the spotlight, there are prizes to be won.

So why is going out midweek important?

All of these options of weeknight entertainment may sound simple enough, but you would be surprised at how much of a difference it could make to your well being. In today’s fast-moving world, it’s extremely important to remember to sit back and take a breath every now and again. Going out to a local venue, even if only for an hour, will remind you that there’s more to life and then working and sleeping! The change of scenery will help you relax afterwards you’ll feel liberated and more productive.

So next time you find yourself reaching for the TV remote on a weeknight, grab your shoes and head out instead. You’ll feel surprisingly rejuvenated afterwards!
