The London Weekend

Quick question…
We want to make TLW as useful for our readers as possible! So for the next few weeks we’ll kick things off with a quick question to help us tailor our content to you! All feedback is much appreciated 🙌
Would you like to see more family-friendly activities in The London Weekend? |
The world’s best improvisers step up to the enormous task of a 50 hour improvathon - that’s 50 hours, non-stop, through the night, split into 25 episodes (individually ticketed). Each episode kicks off with a summary of what's happened so far, so you can drop in anytime!
Set in the Everafter Manor (the UK's hottest spot to tie the knot). Couples are arriving with friends and family to celebrate their big day, but who knows what to expect from best man speeches, first dances, family feuds, adventurous catering, and maybe even cold feet.
Date: Friday, 8th March, 7pm - Sunday, 10th March, 9pm
Price: £12 per episode, £65 for weekend pass
It’s been a good year in film! If you missed some of this years Oscar nominated movies, now’s your chance to catch them again at the Barbican ahead of the awards. My top recommendation would be The Holdovers but you can also watch Blockbusters like Oppenheimer, Barbie and Killers of a Flower Moon as well as an array of international films and compilations of short films.
Date: 8th - 14th March
Price: £13 per showing (individually ticketed)
Celebrate international women’s day by discovering the literary history of women just within one square mile of the City of London. Some characters you’ll be familiar with like Agatha Christie, JK Rowling, and the Bronte Sisters but there will also be some other less known names to get to know.
Date: Saturday, 9th March, 2pm - 4pm
Price: £15
100 leading galleries and special exhibitions gather in Battersea for the return of the Affordable Art Fair. Discover the Pantone Colour of the Year (Peach Fuzz), a brand new installation by Argentinian artist Alejandro Propato, and 1,000s of fresh artworks in all styles and mediums. With bars, cafes and foodtrucks you can make a day of it and maybe walk away with some incredible art from as little as £50!
Date: 6th - 10th March
Price: £15
