Illuminated River Walks

Join us for evening walks along the River to discover the Illuminated River, the longest public art commission in the world.

Each bridge has its own lighting sequence created by artist, Leo Villareal and all together they shine a subtle and beautiful light on London.

There are two walks.

Eastern Bridges from Blackfriars Bridge to Tower Bridge

Western Bridges from Blackfriars Bridge to Westminster Bridge

Lord Mayor's Show, November 8th

This year actually called the Lady Mayor's Show. It takes place between 11am and 2pm.

This year is particularly special! The 2025 event celebrates a historic milestone as Dame Susan Langley DBE, the 697th holder of the office, is the first to adopt the title of 'Lady Mayor of London', marking only the third time a woman has held the post in over 800 years!

There are free guided walks after the show, find out more...
