However, we can offer you the chance to win a great time out with your friends with a bingo bottomless brunch and maybe shouting out 'Hijingo!' when you fill your card.

There are plenty of things that make a bar great, but a show-stopping view? That’s a real gamechanger. What could be more elegant than sitting up high, cocktail-in-hand taking in some sweet, sweet scenery. Whether you’re perched on the umpteenth floor of a Singaporean skyrise or plonked atop a south London car park, rooftop bars are about the experience just as much as the drinks.  Sure, many of them are swanky places, but lots more are pretty down-to-earth hangouts, too (despite, obvs, being pretty far from the ground). Featuring top-notch venues from all over the globe, our favourite rooftop bars range from the cha-ching to the chilled. But they’ve all got one thing in common – a stonking view.

It’s the only capital city in Australia where you can watch the sunset over the ocean, but that’s not the only reason Perth is one of the coolest places to visit. Once solely known for its pristine beaches and perfect weather, Perth’s booming restaurant and culture scenes, and its trendy sister city Fremantle (located just half an hour from Perth) have put WA’s capital city on the international radar. If you're visiting, it's well worth the flight over (which is a little over four hours from Sydney or Melbourne), we promise. RECOMMENDED: These are the best restaurants in Perth right now.

When it comes to winter getaways, Australia – namely, NSW – doesn't always get the best rap. We get a lot of hype for our marvellous beaches and fairweather fun, but our backyard isn't only worth frolicking around in the summertime.

Hong Kong is known for many things; its dynamic culinary scene, architectural mix of old and new, and of course, that iconic skyline. But that’s not all, as our concrete jungle is also wrapped in lush verdant hills with magnificent islands and dramatic rock formations surrounding us, and the best way to take in the city in all its mountainous glory is, yes that’s right, a hike. So, whether you’re a hiking novice, leading the charge, or simply want to check off some of Hong Kong’s must-hikes, we've outlined our favourites with tips and directions to help you on your way.  RECOMMENDED: Prefer things at a different pace? Go for a stroll in one of Hong Kong's Chinese-style gardens instead.

Sydney is certainly not lacking in day spas, but when you want your indulgence in self-rejuvenation to have a bit more of a destination element to it, you can’t go past the Blue Mountains’ best. The area has some great spas to cater to all your relaxing desires – from stress-busting massages and skin-smoothing facials to treatments you didn’t even know you needed, like a zesty ginger-infused ‘cocooning’.

ANZAC Day marks the anniversary of the first day the Australian and New Zealand troops saw military action in Gallipoli back in 1915. In recent times it’s become a day of commemorating and remembering all Australians who have served in war. The annual dawn service held at Martin Place begins with the Catafalque Party and Band, followed by the ceremony from 4.20am by the Cenotaph. At 9am there is a march led by war veterans and their descendants, which will take place down Elizabeth Street. A commemoration service is held from 12.30 at the ANZAC Memorial in Hyde Park by the Pool of Remembrance. The sunset service takes place at the Cenotaph at 5pm. It is a shorter service to conclude the official commemorations, with the accompanyment of the NSW Ambulance Service Band. 

The most challenging part of the Sunrise Kayak and Coffee tour is getting up before 5am – but rising early gives you glassy waters and glorious photo opportunities that’ll make your hungover friends incredibly jealous on a Sunday morning. Instructor Laura Stone, her husband Ben and their incredible team run dawn tours that make the most of Sydney Harbour before most people turn and hit snooze. They set up single kayaks at Lavender Bay Boat Ramp ready for the pre-sunrise meeting time – and while we’re learning the best way to hold our paddles, Laura is picking up everyone’s coffee orders from a local café. Each raft has a custom coffee holder, and the cups keep the brews warm until you’ve paddled under the Bridge. The harbour water is velvety smooth, and the kayaks are very stable so you don’t need to work hard to paddle around Luna Park and into position as the sunlight hits Sydney Opera House. Our fleet rafts up to enjoy the view, sipping flat whites and snapping away with our phones. There’s a photographer on each tour snapping pics that you can take home for free, but it's worth bringing a GoPro along if you have one for the ultimate action shots.  Though the kayaks have glass-bottom windows the water’s still too dark to reveal any sea life – however, we do spot a fur seal frolicking by Blues Point Reserve. After an hour or so of gentle paddling we glide over to Sawmillers Reserve to check out the shipwreck.  It’s one of the drier tours we’ve encountered; expect to get

  SWOP makes it easy to buy, sell and trade premium pre-loved clothing. Sellers bring in their pre-loved items, which are assessed and priced by trained buyers, before being put out on the shop floor for sale. Sellers get cash or store credit, while second hand buyers get access to these special pieces that have been hiding in someone’s wardrobe. They only accept high-end or highly desirable labels, so you won’t find any fast fashion or budget buys on the racks. Each SWOP store in Australia is unique and tailored to each city, no two stores are the same.

Sal's is probably the only pizzeria in Sydney that can lay claim to serving an authentic New York slice. It's not that Sal's chooses to make a New York slice, it is that Sal's is a branch of the New York pizzeria established back in the 1970s in Little Neck, Queens and they have brought it to Sydney to ensure a true, New York slice. All the recipes have been developed by Sal himself, using Wisconsin mozzarella, Californian tomatoes and freshly milled flour from New York. Expect flavours like the classic cheese and pepperoni next to Sal's unique Buffalo chicken or meatball topped pies. Pizzas are all available by the slice and can be enjoyed next to garlic knots, pepperoni wheels, mozzarella sticks and buffalo wings with their signature set of dipping sauces. RECOMMENDED READS: These are the best places to get pizza in Sydney.

Whether you’ve been living in Switzerland for years, are a new arrival or just visiting, you don’t have to spend much time here to work out that it’s a country blessed with more than its share of stunning landscapes. So, it makes sense to protect all that natural beauty by being as sustainable as possible in day-to-day life. This, of course, includes when you’re travelling around Switzerland on holiday. Thankfully, this is a country where sustainability is often at the forefront of the conversation – as proven by a recent public vote backing a climate bill to cut carbon and become carbon neutral by 2050.

Visitar las principales atracciones turísticas de una ciudad está muy bien, pero solo cuando nos desviamos por un callejón perdido o tropezamos por una avenida arbolada podemos conocer el verdadero carácter de cada ciudad. Las calles son el corazón de la vida urbana; es donde las comunidades se reúnen, donde los pequeños comercios se convierten en protagonistas y donde los ciudadanos salen, pasan el rato y se divierten. Dicho esto, ¿cuáles son las mejores calles del mundo que vale la pena conocer y pasear por ellas? Para encontrar la respuesta, nuestro equipo global de editores y colaboradores aportó (e hizoun estudio) de la calle más bonita de su ciudad y, de ahí, creamos un ranking definitivo de las mejores avenidas, vías, callejuelas y bulevares del planeta. En primer lugar encontramos High Street, en Melbourne, Australia. Esta vía atraviesa los ultramodernos suburbios de Northcote, Thornbury y Prestons, y lo que la hace destacar son sus empresas locales y únicas. Desde Casa Nata, donde vienen auténticos pasteles portugueses, hasta Northside Wines, donde se puede degustar el vino local, pasando también por tiendas vintage y un cine independiente, esta calle está llena de vida. En segunda posición está una de las calles más antiguas de Hong Kong: el Hollywood Road, una bulliciosa vía que data de 1844 y que, según la leyenda, recibió ese nombre por los arbustos de acebo que antiguamente la bordeaban. Actualmente, ha cambiado, pero en esta calle hay de todo: el templo Man Mo,

Visitar les principals atraccions turístiques està molt bé, però només quan ens desviem per un carreró perdut o ensopeguem per una avinguda arbrada podem conèixer el veritable caràcter de cada ciutat. Els carrers són el cor de la vida urbana; són on les comunitats es reuneixen, on els petits comerços es converteixen en protagonistes i on els ciutadans surten, passen l’estona i es diverteixen. Dit això, quins són els millors carrers del món que val la pena conèixer i passejar-hi? Per trobar la resposta, el nostre equip global d’editors i col·laboradors va aportar (i fer un estudi) del carrer més vibrant de la seva ciutat i, d’aquí, vam crear un rànquing definitiu de les millors avingudes, vies, carrerons i bulevards del planeta. En el primer lloc trobem High Street, a Melbourne, Austràlia. Aquesta via travessa els ultramoderns suburbis de Northcote, Thornbury i Prestons, i el que la fa destacar són les empreses locals i úniques que acull. Des de Casa Nata, on venen autèntics pastissos portuguesos, fins a Northside Wines, on es pot tastar el vi local, passant també per botigues vintage i un cinema independent, aquest carrer està ple de vida.  En segona posició hi ha un dels carrers més antics de Hong Kong: el Hollywood Road, una bulliciosa via que data del 1844 i que, segons la llegenda, va rebre aquest nom pels arbusts de grèvol que antigament la vorejaven. Actualment, ha canviat, però en aquest carrer hi ha de tot: el temple Man Mo, centres culturals, restaurants, bars i molt

Learning about history doesn’t have to be boring, people. In fact, it can be exuberant, colourful, tuneful and downright entertaining when you’re “learning” by watching hit musical ‘Six’, which makes its way to Zurich during April. This smart, savvy and infectious production traces the sometimes-perilous story of King Henry VIII’s six wives, told by the women themselves through the medium of song. It’s a fresh and frank take on this well-trodden tale. Oh, and these six have some stories in-store for the audience about their respective times as queen, as you’ll find out during the 80-minute musical battle. To make things even more interesting, each is inspired by a contemporary pop giant, such as Beyoncé, Adele and Ariana Grande.   Photograph: Pamela Raith Photography It’s a truly exciting sprint through a particularly ‘colourful’ period of British history, and it’s about to land in Switzerland for the first time, hitting Zurich’s Theater 11 from April 9-21. ‘Six’ has already gone down a treat in London’s renowned West End and on New York’s equally acclaimed Broadway, so join the masses who’ve already witnessed this innovative spectacle and secure your tickets now for its Theater 11 run at the following link: www.ticketcorner.ch/artist/six-the-musical. For a taster of what’s in store, take a look at the trailer, which provides a great glimpse into the vibrant ‘Six’ universe, including a few of the meticulously choreographed dance routines and the incredible costumes.

¿Qué hace que una ciudad sea una buena ciudad? Algunos le dan más importancia a los barrios y sus actividades, otros a la comida y la bebida asequibles, y otros a la cultura y las cosas por hacer; desde ir a galerías de arte y museos hasta disfrutar de la música en directo y del teatro. Incluso podemos fijarnos en cosas como la felicidad de sus habitantes, el acceso a espacios verdes y el sentimiento de comunidad que se respira. Todos estos aspectos, y mucho más, son los que han valorado en la encuesta de las mejores ciudades del mundo, elaborada por Time Out Internacional. El ranking ha encuestado a los habitantes de diversas ciudades de todo el mundo sobre cómo es vivir, trabajar y jugar actualmente en los lugares donde viven. Gracias a las opiniones de los locales y los expertos de Time Out en todo el mundo, el ranking global de las mejores ciudades del mundo 2024 ya está aquí, y ya podemos conocer en qué posición ha quedado nuestra ciudad. Barcelona en la posición 38 de ciudades del mundo Barcelona se encuentra en la posición número 38 del ranking de las mejores 50 ciudades del mundo gracias, en parte, a las numerosas magníficas atracciones que la convierten en un imán para el turismo y los locales.

Què fa que una ciutat sigui una bona ciutat? Alguns li donen més importància als barris i les seves activitats, altres al menjar i la beguda assequibles, i altres a la cultura i les coses per fer; des d'anar a galeries d'art i museus fins a gaudir de la música en directe i del teatre. Fins i tot ens podem fixar en coses com la felicitat dels seus habitants, l'accés a espais verds i el sentiment de comunitat que s'hi respira. Tots aquests aspectes, i molt més, són els que han valorat a l'enquesta de les millors ciutats del món, elaborada per Time Out Internacional. El rànquing ha enquestat als habitants de diverses ciutats d'arreu del món sobre com és viure, treballar i jugar actualment als llocs on viuen. Gràcies a les opinions dels locals i els experts de Time Out arreu del món, el rànquing global de les millors ciutats del món 2024 ja és aquí, i ja podem conèixer en quina posició ha quedat la nostra ciutat. Barcelona a la posició 38 de ciutats del món Barcelona es troba a la posició número 38 del rànquing de les millors 50 ciutats del món gràcies, en part, a les nombroses atraccions magnífiques que la converteixen en un imant per al turisme i per als locals. Per a tots els llocs emblemàtics i atapeïts com la Sagrada Família, i també per les seves joies amagades pendents de ser descobertes, com la Torre Bellesguard de Gaudí.

London is bloody massive. Too massive, some might say. There’s just so much to do here. It can all be a bit overwhelming.

1. Don't complain about how getting to North Sydney or Parramatta is too hard and can’t your mates just meet you in the city? There's a train for that and it's quite easy. 2. Stop moving in next door to live music venues and complaining about the noise. 3. Get to the front of the line at the Gelato Messina HQ, Malibu sandwich shop or Oti' pizza ready to order, no one likes a flavour waffler.  4. Pushing your way onto a train, tram or bus without waiting for people to disembark should be a punishable offence. 5. Save your car horn for its purpose, not because the car in front of you can't hear you going "tsk" with your mouth. 6. If you want to stand still on the escalator, stand to the left and give way to the right (and no standing side-by-side with a mate). You're forgiven if you're here from overseas, where it's the other way around. 7. Jog in the bike lane at Centennial Park by all means, but prepare to share, don't barge. 8. Attending a yoga class and leaving your phone on vibrate is pretty up there, especially if you let your Instagram stories play through so you can view them while you downward dog, ya dog.  9. If you're going to walk three-abreast, slowly, in the city, at lunchtime or right after work, expect some huffing and puffing behind you and move out of the way for the speed walkers. 10. Don't boast about how you'd never head north over the Bridge, despite the fact you'd willingly spend over an hour in traffic getting to Watsons Bay. 11. Swim fast if you're

Your chance to catch a roaring good theatre show has just been boosted, with Disney’s ‘The Lion King’ about to land in Theatre 11 Zurich from November 23 and an extended run until March 2024 just announced. Everyone knows the heart-warming and dramatic story of lion cub Simba’s eventful journey to become king, but there’s nothing quite like seeing it brought to life on stage by over 50 actors, singers and dancers, plus various incredible costumes, masks and puppets. All your fave characters will be present to help Simba along his way, including Rafiki, Timon and Pumbaa, as well as mega-evil and mildly terrifying Uncle Scar doing his villainous thing throughout.

Classics including ‘Can You Feel the Love Tonight’ and ‘Shadowland’ will also be there to soothe your ears. And while the kids will love it, don’t think that this is ‘just’ a children’s production. ‘The Lion King’ is not only the biggest-ever grossing show in New York Broadway history, it’s also one of the most successful musicals in the world, meaning it appeals to any generation – because who doesn’t love a big-hearted odyssey about a lion on an epic adventure?    Photograph: ©Disney Join the 110 million-plus people who’ve witnessed this visual and musical extravaganza by booking your seat now.

There are many ways to see the Alps, but perhaps none quite as impressive as the Gornergrat Bahn. Opened in 1898, it’s the oldest electric cog railway system in Switzerland, but it feels as modern and relevant as ever on its 125th anniversary, especially when you’re gliding along the rails, admiring the scenery. And that scenery. Towering glaciers, soaring, snow-capped mountain peaks, verdant valleys… This is Switzerland at its finest and – to let you in on a secret – autumn is arguably when these sights look their finest. Once in your smart train carriage, prepare for a smooth ride of just 33 minutes. During the journey, you’ll effortlessly rise to almost 1,500 metres in altitude, each metre of ascent providing new and exciting vistas. Take time to look down over Zermatt, a place that now feels a million miles away. You’ll also begin coming face-to-face with the mighty Matterhorn, the centrepiece that crowns all views of this area. For a different perspective of the Matterhorn, consider hiking through the pine and larch forests you’ll be able to see way down below. Gazing up at the mountain’s splendour from these scenic woodland trails has an appeal all of its own.

Prepare for panoramic views of the Matterhorn alongside 28 other mountain peaks that all reach over 4,000 metres. For those who like their hiking at high-alti
