Concerts Near Me Tonight | Things To Do Near Me This Weekend

Great list below from the Londonist for anyone spending time in London or the UK through the Holiday Season.  In addition to those items below there are several very popular Broadway shows performing in London in addition to the shows originating in the UK.  Check your dates and the schedules for Motown – The Musical, Aladdin, The Phantom Of The Opera, The Book of Mormon, Les Miserables, Wicked, Mamma Mia!, and Chicago The Musical among many other great theatre options in the West End and beyond.

is an expensive time of year, especially in London, so indulge in these free ways to get into the festive spirit in the capital. You won’t have to spend a penny — though of course there are plenty of chances to get rid of your money if you’re […]

Sure, if you want to have a go on those funfair rides, go ice skating, watch the circus, get some food and drink, do your Christmas shopping at the Christmas market or enter the ice kingdom, you’ll have to pay (and steeply too). But just for wandering, it’s completely free.

As with Winter Wonderland, you could spend a decent amount of dosh here if you were so inclined. The 1920s Spiegeltent has an impressive line-up of shows, from burlesque carols to silent discos, and of course you’ll have to pay if you want to see Santa, or tuck into food or drink. Otherwise, you can pass a short amount of time here, enjoying the pretty lights for free, and snapping a few Instagram shots. It’s much smaller than Winter Wonderland though — you’d struggle to spend a whole afternoon here.

Top of the list is Southbank Centre’s Winter Market (9 November-27 December), a cute collection of wooden chalets decked in sparkling lights, right next to the river. Head further east along the Christmas by the River (29 November-2 January), a Christmas market next to City Hall, with a backdrop of Tower Bridge. Lovely.
