WHAT’S HOT IN LONDON THIS SUMMER?

London’s starting to heat up, not just with the weather but with the awe-inspiring range of events counting down as summer draws nearer. Whether it’s the interstellar line up of musicians playing throughout the summers firebrand good time festivals or it’s the exhibitions in the wide range of galleries across the city, there is plenty to flood your own personal Thames barrier with as the summer draws closer. If it’s a pick me up you need from the same mundane tourist traps whilst staying at the London Suites by Montcalm, then you’ve certainly come to the right place. Below is a low down of just some of the great events taking place over the summer period this year.

Sunrise Yoga

Get in the sunrise this summer and soak in some exercise. In the legendary sky garden, you can see in the day with amazing views which promise to be as refreshing as the various therapeutic exercises you’ll be taking part in.

British Summer Time Festival

This year the Hyde Park July extravaganza brings a range of acts over two weekends at the beginning of July. The family friendly and multi stage music festival brings legendary acts year after year, and 2018 is no different. With the likes of Phil Collins, Eric Clapton, The Cure and Bruno Mars playing this year, there truly is something for everyone.

BBC Proms in the Park

Based in Camden, this alternative to the Edinburgh Fringe gives anyone who can’t make it up to the iconic Fringe Festival in Scotland a chance to see some top acts in the theatre, comedy and cabaret world making a name for themselves down in London. Whether you’re looking for a laugh, some spoken word poetry or a raucous drag act, Camden is the place to be during late July and August.

Underbelly Festival

The Underbelly Festival on the Southbank is another celebration of all things performance. Whether you’re looking for comedy or theatre, or you just want to hang out in the beautiful beer garden overlooking the South Bank and the River Thames, then this is the perfect tonic for your day.
