London listeners, buckle up for one of the most thrilling weeks on the city’s event calendar. Kicking off today and running through the weekend, London is buzzing with creativity, culture, and culinary feasts.
Today marks the start of London Fashion Week. The capital becomes a global style hub as designers, celebrities, and models take over runways, galleries, and pop-up spaces. Expect designer showcases at the official venues and citywide pop-ups for those itching to spot the latest trends or rub shoulders with international fashion royalty. From expertly curated talks to glitzy evening events, there’s something for everyone wanting to immerse themselves in the best of British and global fashion, according to VisitLondon.
For art and design lovers, the city hosts the London Design Festival until September twenty-first. London transforms into one sprawling, innovative gallery. Check out installations inside the Victoria and Albert Museum, experimental works popping up in Shoreditch, and neighborhood trails that celebrate the best new designers and makers from all corners of the world. The Design Festival draws some of the industry’s biggest names and offers hands-on workshops and talks perfect for anyone seeking inspiration, as reported by London Perfect.
Architecture buffs should take advantage of Open House London, also running until the twenty-first. This is your annual chance to explore more than eight hundred buildings and spaces — from glittering skyscrapers to secretive historic homes — that are usually strictly off-limits to the public. Free tours, architectural walks, and cycle rides dot the city, so don’t miss this rare behind-the-scenes peek, courtesy of Open House London’s event program.
This weekend, September twentieth, brings the Great River Race, described by the Official London Events Calendar as “London’s River Marathon.” More than three hundred boats, some decked out in wild costumes, set off from Millwall to Ham in Richmond. It’s one of the most colorful spectacles on the Thames, with music, food stalls, and riverside cheering throughout the day.
The foodie highlight of the weekend is the triumphant return of the Brick Lane Curry Festival, running Friday through Sunday. After years away, Brick Lane explodes with sizzling spices, henna art workshops, Bangla-style dance classes, DJs, and live performances. Restaurants and street vendors pull out their most aromatic dishes, so bring your appetite and prepare for a culinary adventure. DesignMyNight calls it a must for London’s food lovers.
Looking for something wildly imaginative? The brand-new immersive experience Hexmoor Wizarding Prison opens Friday on Hackney Road. Created by the team behind Alcotraz and Avora, the experience plunges you into a magical prison world, complete with spellbinding interactive scenes, wizarding cocktails, and a prison jumpsuit to match. Magic meets mixology with tickets available from forty-nine pounds fifty, so prepare yourself for London’s quirkiest new showstopper.
For those seeking a classic London atmosphere, nothing beats cosying up with a pint at one of the city’s historic pubs as autumn settles in. The Spaniards Inn in Hampstead and The Mitre in Fulham serve up roaring fires, centuries-old charm, and perfect comfort food for those who prefer a warm and relaxed weekend.
