Looking for something to do in and around Kingston this weekend? Here are our picks of the events and activities you won't want to miss:

SUNDAY: Watch the LVI Superbowl Live! at the Albion, Kingston

Join The Albion for the 56th Super Bowl! Projecting onto screens throughout the pub, so you don't have to miss a second of the action!

Grab some mates and head down for a night of the very best in American Football; serving fried chicken and vegan burgers until late from the legends at Good Times Chicken, and super tasty craft beer care of Big Smoke Brew Co thanks to their super late special license!

Time: Sunday 13 Feb, 9pm - 4am (kick off 11.30pm)

Location: 45 Fairfield Rd, Kingston upon Thames KT1 2PY

FRIDAY NIGHT: James Morrison at Pryzm Kingston

To celebrate the release of his new Greatest Hits album, James Morrison visits Kingston to play an intimate and solo set at Pryzm.

In a twist on the 'Greatest Hits' format, James Morrison returned to the studio with his long-term producer Mark Taylor to record new versions of thirteen of his classic songs alongside his regular live band.

James calls on fifteen years of experience to breathe fresh life into the songs. Not only has his voice matured - with a richer, deeper, more soulful timbre - but his live performances have uncovered other layers to the material, in many cases emphasising different elements to the original recordings.

Tickets from £11. Times TBC but we expect doors at 7:00pm with James Morrison on at 8:00pm

SATURDAY NIGHT: Tim Penn and the Second Line at Ram Jam Records

Tim Penn & The Second Line have firmly established their reputation as one of the top New Orleans R&B outfits playing around London.

If you like Fats Domino, Professor Longhair, Dr John, Allen Toussaint, The Neville Brothers, mixed in with an occasional old school Jelly Roll Morton - then this is one band you won't want to miss.

Tim Penn is one of the most 'in demand' keyboard players on the roots, songwriter & blues scenes. Going back to the 1970s, he was a member of Twickenham legend Dorris Henderson's Eclection and also the Kevin Coyne band alongside Andy Summers (The Police) and Gordon Smith (Described by John Peel as "The foremost white Blues guitarist in the world.")

Tickets from £14, doors at 7pm.

SATURDAY to SUNDAY: Half term at Hampton Court Palace - Tudor Roasting in the Historic Kitchens and Queen Mary I

Join our Historic Cooks in Henry VIII's Kitchens at Hampton Court this February half term and discover life on the lower rungs of the Tudor court ladder.

Famous as the food factory built for her father, King Henry VIII, the kitchens continued to produce roasted meat for Queen Mary I's court and guests.

PLUS: This February half term, peek behind the scenes into Mary Tudor's rocky realm as you go on a journey through her five-year reign. Meet the people who knew her best, uncover secrets as you piece together the story of her rise and fall.

Tickets: included in Palace Admission. From £44.20 for families and £25.30 for adults.

FRIDAY to SUNDAY: Zog and the Flying Doctors

Zog, super keen student turned air-ambulance, still lands with a crash-bang-thump. Together with his Flying Doctor crew, Princess Pearl and Sir Gadabout, they tend to a sunburnt mermaid, a unicorn with one too many horns and a lion with the flu. However, Pearl's uncle, the King, has other ideas about whether princesses should be doctors, and she's soon locked up in the castle back in a crown and a silly frilly dress!

With a bit of help from some friends and half a pound of cheese, can Pearl make her uncle better and prove princesses can be doctors too?

Based on Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler's bestselling sequel, Freckle Productions (Zog, Stick Man, Tiddler & Other Terrific Tales, Tabby McTat) bring the creative team behind Zog, Emma Kilbey and Joe Stilgoe, back together for this truly modern take on the classic fairy tale.

Running time: Approx. 1hr (no interval). Age guidance: Most suitable for ages 3+ but all ages welcome. Tickets from £12.
