Best events in London

It was not far short of 250 years ago that Dr Samuel Johnson famously said that “a man who is tired of London is tired of life”. London remains in the 21st century as compelling, fascinating and action packed city as can be found anywhere in the globe. There is hardly a month in the year when London is not thronged with visitors from all over the world catching up with its unique mixture of tradition – Royal palaces and parks, the Tower of London and Tower Bridge spanning the historic River Thames – and modernity – a wealth of entertainment, culture, and not least sport.
