Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.If you’ve always dreamed of hanging out in Monica’s apartment, enjoying a coffee from Central Perk, and pivotting your way around a staircase with a couch, you’re in luck.
Comedy Central’s FriendsFest is returning to the UK this summer to celebrate Friends' 25th anniversary.
Events will take place between July and September across the UK in London, Bristol, Manchester and Milton Keynes.
Fans of the show will have the chance to walk through the series’ most famous sets including Ross’ apartment, the hallway between Monica and Joey’s apartment, as well as Central Perk.
There will also be the opportunity to feast from Friends-themed food stalls (think Mockolate and the Joey Special), order drinks from a cocktail bar, and take part in a FriendsFest quiz.
Photo opportunities include recreating the Thanksgiving floating heads scene and the show’s title sequence with umbrellas.
The exhibition starts in Manchester’s Heaton Park on 2 August through to 18 August.
It will then travel to Bristol’s Castle Estate (23 August – 1 September), Milton Keynes’s Willen Lake (6 – 15 September) and end in London’s Kennington Park (20 – 29 September).
Tickets will be available to purchase from 15 March from See Tickets, with standard tickets priced at £27.50.
