Yes, we know that 2019 is suffering from a deficiency on long weekends, but the one upcoming is something you should totally leverage! While it is unfortunate that Raksha Bandhan and Independence Day fell on the same day but, you need not worry much. You just need to take one day off and you are set for a four-day long weekend. The question is what do you do? Lucky for you, we have come up with a list of activities to help prioritize your weekend just right.

Feel the josh while binging on a patriotic movie

Independence Day is all about feeling special and nostalgic. Why not soak up the patriotism, unwinding and enjoying 'Mangal Mission' at a cinema near you? Head on to online ticketing and skip the queue by booking your tickets and F&B in advance. With Independence Day and Raksha Bandhan around the corner, you can take advantage of exciting offers as you book your seats for preferred movies and events.

Indulge in a sibling showdown: Embrace your inner child

Let’s face the fact that we can totally be our goofy and authentic selves with our siblings. You used to play together as kids, so relive that with a fun-filled staycation booking an OYO Home Farmstay. While you book this stay you can also opt-in for a wizard membership to ensure greater savings on this and all your next impromptu trips. It doesn't really matter where you go or what you do, just let loose and laugh like little kids again.

Devour tri-color dishes at leading restaurants

It’s time to add a punch to your day by colour coordinating with your friends and families this Independence Day. Now that you are all dressed up and ready to dine, do check the instant table bookings and benefit from attractive deals from leading restaurants. All set and done then it’s time to binge on a biryani or pasta.

Unleash your creativity at an art workshop

What better way to end the week than joining an art workshop. You may be no Picasso but these kinds of workshops will ensure you take home some learnings on how to make pottery or a painting depending upon your choice.

Shop until you drop at the trendsetting shopping malls

Are you looking at revamping your wardrobe? If yes then shopping malls are just the place for you to enjoy those extravagant discounts and prizes on leading fashion outlets. This weekend is the perfect excuse to shop to your heart’s content as you truly deserve this break. There is entertainment galore for each and everyone including dance performances, foot juggling, and competitions to participate in with amazing prizes to take back home.
