The Southbank Centre holds more free events than any other venue that I can think of. The only problem is knowing when and where they’re being held. Sometimes they’re in the evening, sometimes outside.
You see the venue’s pretty big, is open all day and the really good free stuff is not always well advertised.
For example [...]

Just in case anyone was in doubt about how multicultural London is, February proves the world is living in London.
There are two free events in particular that are perfect for the kids and that welcome everyone to share in their day of culture.

As Christmas and the New Year approach many comedy clubs in London up their entrance charge to ridiculous levels. Just the Tonic although putting up their price, still only charge £30 for their New Years Eve comedy show, which is very cheap for London.

With Christmas getting closer many of the Christmas markets are coming to an end.
The Christmas Slow Food market ends on Tuesday 22nd and the Cologne Christmas market ends on Wednesday 23rd. Both are around the Southbank Centre and you haven’t been in London at Christmas if you haven’t been to one of them.
There’s plenty to [...]

Funfair at the O2 how good is it really?

things to do in london, o2 funfair December 20, 2009

There’s a good chance you’ve been or at least seen the Funfair at Leicester Square. I went and was disappointed so I’d suggest either go to the Winter Wonderland one or to the one at the O2 Arena.
The Funfair at the O2 is a bit like the Winter Wonderland, it has a Santa’s Grotto, Christmas [...]
