January is over, payday is here and you’re finally allowed to eat and drink whatever you want again. Celebrate the end of the worst month of the year this Saturday at a cask ale festival or a raucous all-night gala from drag king troupe Pecs.
Sample more than 20 cask ales from some of the UK’s most exciting microbreweries at this north London knees-up. Look out for beer and chocolate tutorials, pie and beer pairings, and resident DJs pumping out rock ’n’ roll tunes.
The Snooty Fox. Canonbury Overground. Until Sat Feb 1. Free.
Mingle with London royalty as the drag king troupe Pecs return to the Vault Festival with another whopper of a late-night show, followed by a sweaty all-night party. It will be kitsch. It will be femme. But above all, it will be camp!

From students to up-and-coming designers, more than 60 potters will be selling their ceramics at this work at this fair full of quirky lamps, tableware, vases, pots, sculptures and jewellery.
