Something For The Weekend in London: July 6-8

A Yoko Ono exhibition, the theatrical rise of Prometheus, and a summer holiday camp in the Old Vic tunnels – it’s only another eclectic round-up of what’s on over the weekend in the capital that’ll not only inspire your cultural sensibilities, but have you hoping the next two days can last for just a little bit longer.

With 20+ degree weather expected to last all weekend in the capital, we’d be silly not to make the most of it.

Something For The Weekend in London: May 18 -20
The spring weather might be a little tempermental in the capital this mid-May, but at least we’ve always got a brilliant array of cultural happenings to rely on – so this weekend, why not check out a brand spankin’ new Photographer’s Gallery, pay homage to a hip-hop great, go digging for rare vinyls, mull over spoken word or simply sip wine in a new Soho haunt?

Brighton Fringe 2012: Let the fun begin
There is a collective hum of activity growing around Brighton at the moment. Venues are being built, banners going up, tickets being bought by the thousand and performers warming up. In spite of the spectre of meteorological doom, England’s largest arts festival is about to begin.
