  • This is The Guardian.

  • Today, a sunny look at the cultural highlights of summer 2025.

  • At PwC,

  • we build for what's next so you can get there now so you can protect what you built.

  • So you can create new value.

  • PwC.

  • So you can.

  • PwC refers to the PwC network and or one or more of its member firms,

  • each of which is a separate legal entity.

  • How was your weekend?

  • Did you do anything new?

  • Anything exciting?

  • Did you lose yourself at Glastonbury?

  • Or did you very happily watch Dircey and Neil Young from the comfort of your living room?

  • Perhaps, like our music editor Ben, you blasted out your perfect summer anthem.

  • For me, what makes a really great summer anthem is a breeziness, I think,

  • and a kind of a feeling like it cools you down slightly on a hot summer's day.

  • Club Tropicana by Wham!

  • George Michael actually sings cool in it towards the end of that song and it kind of acts like this weird breeze and you know I'm kind of a gingery strawberry blondie type person.

  • I don't really deal with the heat so well so I need this stuff.
