Who needs foreign shores when you’ve got high 20s, ponds to swim in, riverside prosecco dates and a whole load of sizzling events to experience in London!

From the hip-swaying beats of Notting Hill carnival, alfresco dining to mind-expanding talks on some of the Summer’s most talked about topics. We’ve rounded up 13 unmissable events you need to check out this hot hot hot season.

1. Thameside Tequila and Tapas

That old saying the best things come in threes. Well in this case it could not be truer. Fresh tapas dishes, a riverside setting aboard a boat and woo girl tequila shots for when you’re ready to take it up a notch.

3. Hampstead Heath Ponds

London’s been a bit of a scorcher of late and it doesn’t look like it’s going anywhere. Antidote? Pack a picnic and swimwear and head to Hampstead Heath for the day. Jump on in to the natural ponds for a refreshing cool down right here in London.

4. The Summer Prosecco Crawl

Because one glass just isn’t enough! Grab the crew and embrace the sunshine as you hop from one riverside bar to the next with a glass (or bottle) of light summery prosecco in hand. Dreamy.

5. London National Park City Week

Come Summer, us Londoners flock to the green spaces of this city to frollick in the sun and absorb that feel-good vitamin D. Celebrate those spaces during National Park City Week with over 270 events and activities to choose from. With organised walks to discover hidden green gems, urban wildlife watching, boat trips and tree trails being hungover or indoors just isn’t an option.

7. Notting Hill Carnival

Dress head to toe in vibrant colours, throw on some glitter (environmentally friendly please), pick up some red stripes and watch as the energetic, pulse-pounding Notting Hill Carnival transforms the streets. Listen to the sounds of the Reggae, Soca and Dancehall and dance in the streets. Need a refuel? Dig in to jerk chicken, plantain and spicy patties, washed down with a jug of rum punch.

8. Mile End Floating Market

Normally you have to travel to Thailand to get this kind of deal. But no, a floating market can be enjoyed on Regent’s canal with colourful canal boats offering vintage clothing, records, books, vegan cakes, coffee and even slovakaian food to satisfy your needs.
