Crane your neck above Café Oto and you might spot this charming roof garden venue, which jumps into action every summer. There’s enough greenery and, er, astroturf on this alfresco oasis to make you forget you’re in Dalston, though you'll soon remember once all the parties, gigs, film screenings and other arty goings-on start. It's even utilised by ace Dalston multi-venue festival Land Of Kings, meaning that you can have fun from way up high while watching the hoi polloi down below.
Who wants to be stuck in a basement or a warehouse when it’s sunny outside? Certainly not Londoners judging by the amount of awesome open-air and terrace parties happening. So head to the great urban outdoors and get stuck in.
