IT may be November but there is still lots of activities taking place in Warrington this weekend.
From markets to Vikings and Christmas to there are plenty of things to enjoy in the borough.
Here is our pick of the best:

The Vikings will take over Warrington Museum and Library on Saturday from 11am until 3pm.
Taking centre stage in the library will be Viking reenactors, who are set to entertain audiences with a number of authentic games and live music, while storytellers from Imagining History recount the Mighty Myths of Thor and Loki by delivering two 45-minute performances, one at midday and one at 2pm.
Meanwhile, visitors can cast their eyes over artifacts while budding artists can try their hands at making Thor’s famous hammer pendant upstairs in the museum between 1pm and 3pm.
MAKERS MARKET > SUNDAY
Grab a treat at the popular Makers Market in Queen's Gardens from 11am.
