Enjoy London from 18th to 19th Jan to the Fullest!

London is the capital city of the United Kingdom. The city stands on the banks of the river Thames and is a major settlement. It is a leading global destination and it becomes necessary to know what things to do in London if you are visiting.

If you love swimming, join the marathon and swim through the best ponds, parks and pools in London. The Swimmer is a half marathon covering 6 miles starting from the natural Hampstead ponds, stopping for dips at the Serpentine and Parliament Hill Lido. The journey ends at Brockwell Lido. Taking part in the marathon is one of the things to do in London this weekend.

What to do in London this Weekend is the 38th London International Mime Festival. From 8th Jan to the 1st of February, the Gallic show ‘L’Apres Midi D’un Foehn’ is going to take the city by storm. Gone are the days when one would associate ‘mime’ with images of trapped people in black and white. You will be seeing dancing plastic bags in this show!
The Commitments musical - London show at the palace theatre
Before the 26th of January, what to do in London this month is to see the hit musical "The Commitments". It is a story of a group of Irish boys and girls that bind over their love for music. It is based on the novel by Roddy Doyle and the hit movie by Alan Parker. You’ll get to listen to some fabulous classics such as “Try A Little Tenderness”, “In the Midnight Hour”, “Mustang Sally” and “Papa Was A Rolling Stone”.

London this weekend is going to come alive with the Let It Be concert at the Savoy Theatre. It is to celebrate the 50th anniversary of “The Beatles” and are some special offers- about 36% off on booking tickets. Bookings are open till 16th May 2015. Great Beatle hits are going to be combined with never seen before photo and video projections. Rock to the 60’s hits with “Come Together”, “Hey Jude”, “Twist and Shout”, “She Loves You”, “Sgt Peppers Lonely Heart Band”, “Yesterday”, “Help” and “Let It Be”.

Amongst other things to do in London this weekend is to attend the greatest event in Snooker- The Masters. For 32 years, the event has always been held at Wembley. The tournament is being held at an all new venue- the Alexandra Palace. The tournament will feature the top 16 players in the Snooker world including defending champion- Ding Junhui.

Love ice skating? London this weekend has only the best place open for you to get all wrapped up and show your skating skills- Canary Wharf (open till February 16th 2014).

The rib tickling show- Monty Python's Spamalot comes to an end in February. So it should top your list of answers to the question “What to do in London this month?” The show has been running for almost a year and a half.

There are many things to do in London apart from these shows. You can visit St. Paul's Cathedral, Windsor Castle, Westminster Abbey, and the Tower of London.

The Kew Gardens also top the ‘What’s on in London this January’ list. Make the most of your stay!
