London Fashion Week (12-14 June) returns with a new digital-only platform, londonfashionweek.co.uk, hosting multimedia content from designers, artists and brands. British Fashion Council CEO Caroline Rush says this will put storytelling at the heart of LFW. “There will be inspiration in bucketloads. It is what British fashion is known for,” she says.

Throughout history, humans adopted myths as a tool to understand the world around them. From prehistoric cave drawings and Ancient Greece to contemporary art, artists have embraced mythology within their practice to tell stories and more recently to reinvent history.

During a time of social distancing, rise of biopolitics and the breakdown of daily routines HOFA Gallery presents Myth-Making exhibition, to explore a concept which is an integral part of the artistic aesthetic language.

Through examining these works through the lens of Myth-Making, the exhibition aims to achieve two interrelated goals: to analyse individual artists and the multifaceted artistic practices, as well as to explore the historical and cultural relevance of myth-making.

VIRTUAL VIEWING ROOM LAUNCH: WEDNESDAY 10TH JUNE, 6PM (BST).

One of Her Majesty’s favourite events of the year, the Cartier Queen’s Cup (28 July-23 Aug) tournament this year celebrates its 60th anniversary at Guard’s Polo Club, with hot competition from the world’s best riders.

Guard's Polo Club says: "This year we will be celebrating the 60th anniversary of the Queen's Cup. This coveted trophy was first presented by HM The Queen in 1960 and today is regarded as one of the leading high-goal tournaments in the world. Some of the biggest names in the game of polo over the past six decades have added their name to this trophy and it remains a key tournament in every high-goal patron's polo schedule. Cartier has sponsored this tournament since 2012 and the luxury watchmaker and jeweller is renowned as the creator of the benchmark in luxury polo sport and hospitality."

Motorsport fans will be delighted as Formula 1 restarts its engines in July. The British Grand Prix (17-19 July) is on track to return to Silverstone and although it’s unlikely that fans will be in the grandstands, we have no doubt the spectacle will be as fast-paced and action-packed as ever.

The BBC Proms prepares to delight classical music lovers with a full programme of music celebrating its 125th year. We might not be able to get to the Royal Albert Hall, but concerts will be televised, on radio and online via bbc.co.uk/proms

To mark the 250th anniversary year of Beethoven's birth, a new mash-up of Beethoven's 9 Symphonies has been specially created by Iain Farrington, which will be a spectacular digital springboard for the summer.

London Art Week is launching its own virtual show. Expect in-gallery exhibitions of early art, Old and Modern Masters and fine pre-contemporary works plus talks and events. Real-life shows will take place where possible.
