Plus, if you want to know what’s happening in London, like, right now, check out things to do in London this week and things to do in London this weekend. This London bucket list (curated by our editors and always hotly debated in the Time Out office) is a good place to start because exploring this city can be a little daunting. There’s something for everyone here, but you need to know where to look. And if you need somewhere to stay? Check out London’s best hotels or Airbnbs. And that’s before you factor in all those historic London pubs, the latest must-visit restaurants and vibrant LGBTQ+ venues.
Whether you want to see cutting-edge art exhibitions, iconic attractions, secret spots, world-beating theatre, stunning green spaces, it’s all here and you can probably fit all this in and more still barely feel like you’ve scratched the surface of the city.
When the sun’s out, London’s parks turn into leafy social clubs, restaurants dust off their outdoor seating, fountains erupt from dusty concrete squares and suddenly the city air is filled with alfresco theatr e. In the winter, the city turns into an illuminated paradise, its pubs are lit with cosy fires and a new cultural season brings huge blockbuster shows to the city’s most illustrious galleries and theatres. No matter what your vibe, tastes or interests, there is always something to do in London. If you want to launch yourself into the spoils of the season, check out the best places to see colourful spring flowers across the city, where to see baby animals and the best city walks to really take in the brighter days ahead. It’s also a mega month for theatre with the likes of ‘Ain’t Too Proud’, the first properly big new West End musical to hit London since 2021, ‘A Play for the Living in a Time of Extinction’, a new show from auteur director Katie Mitchell starring ‘It’s A Sin’ star Lydia West, and a big revival of Noël Coward’s classic 1930 comedy ‘ Private Lives’ at the Donmar with a drool-worthy cast, including Stephen Mangan and Rachael Stirling. Check out The Gilbert and George Centre opening this month: a whole space created by and dedicated to British art’s most iconic duo, and make time to see Steve McQueen’s moving ‘Grenfell’ f i lm at the Serpentine Gallery. April also means Easter is here, bringing four whole days off over the Easter bank holiday weekend to fill with things to do. This means longer days, warmer weather and maybe even the odd sunny Saturday spent at one of London’s loveliest beer gardens or rooftop bars. April 2023: Smile, London! It’s been a long, cold winter but, finally, Spring is officially here.
