Around Town
Fancy a night hike? Or how about a street festival? Maybe snooping around amazing architecture is more up your alley. If you’d rather not spend the day buried beneath your duvet nursing a sore head, this is your point of call for whiling away a weekend in the open air.

Art

Music
The music merry-go-round revolves so fast these days you've only known about a band for two minutes and already they’re charging £20 on the door at Brixton Academy. We say, free gigs are where it’s at, where you can sniff out breaking bands and enjoy a few pints with your spare change. See free Music
Sport
Sport should be free, right? But in London the only matches you can afford to see are on the box at a pub. Click here and you might even find that you can go to the Brit Oval for free; yes, really!

Theatre
Don’t go and get mugged by the theatre touts that hang about outside the Dominion. Instead head for fringe shows and off-West End theatres for plays where it’s value for money all the way.
