Summer Bank Holiday weekend is upon us — in my opinion the most underrated bank holiday of the year. Sure, Easter is a long weekend, spring marks the start of nice weather and Christmas for … well, obvious reasons. The summer Bank Holiday is great because if you want to enjoy the city, it’s actually surprisingly more quiet than expected as so many people are out of town. And then if you wanted to go out of town, it’s August so you can enjoy the weather to the maximum. Some of the best parties and activities happen over this weekend and I’ll be talking about them a little more today.
I can’t talk about this weekend without mentioning Notting Hill Carnival. There’s possibly nothing more London than this incredible festival of music, culture and food. It’s been alive for as long as I have and I’ve been attending for as long as I can remember.
