Sit back, chill and take a break from everything work-related. As part of HuffPost's weekend gig guide, there is a lot to look forward to.
Here are five things you can get up to this weekend:
Friday
Movies
The Incredibles 2

Attention all superhero fanatics, animation geeks and families with nothing to do - the first family of the cinematic superhero world has returned in epic fashion. "Incredibles 2" launches today in SA cinemas nationwide. It's definitely worth the watch, too, as it has shattered the record for an opening weekend by an animated film in the United States.

In "Incredibles 2", we follow members of the Parr family as they take on Screenslaver, a mysterious new villain who brainwashes people through their electronic devices.
"Oceans 8" also opens this weekend and sees Sandra Bullock and her cast of female cons plan one of the biggest jewel heists of all time. The film features Cate Blanchett, Anne Hathaway, Mindy Kaling, Sarah Paulson and Awkwafina, with Rihanna and Helena Bonham Carter.

Saturday
Cullinan Wine Event 2018

They say a glass of wine is always good for the heart, and the Second Cullinan (Diamond Route) Wine event takes place on Saturday.

The wine tasting starts at 10am and ends at 4pm with a variety of wines from 15+ wineries exhibiting at five different venues in Cullinan. Wine produced in Pretoria, Cullinan and the Western Cape will be available for tasting. Walk around the village and enjoy the curios, crafts and handmade items on offer while tasting the wine.
Tickets are available at the event for R150 per person. For information, check out Quicket.
Springboks vs England

The three-Test series between South Africa and England concludes on Saturday at Newlands Stadium in the Western Cape, and the Boks will be hoping to make it a whitewash against Eddie Jones' England, who have already lost the series.
