St Katharine Docks is always worth a visit, with its fascinating line-up of exclusive vessels bobbing on the water, hidden away from the hustle and bustle of central London. Head there this August bank holiday weekend and you'll find a big additional incentive: a summery jazz festival packed with sultry acts to enjoy by the water.
The free programme features 15 artists performing over three days, on Marble Dock. This international crew include the docks' artist-in-residence, jazz vocalist Olivia Swann, Brooklyn singer-songwriter Inés Nassara pianist Jamie Safir and more. Pitch up and enjoy a laidback afternoon of new sounds.
