London is known for its wealth of culture and tourist attractions, but these usually come at a cost, so we would like to make sure that people are aware of the fun, budget-friendly activities taking place across the city this summer.
Here are some exciting activities that will be taking place around London to celebrate sport, culture and being outdoors this upcoming season – and they will not break the bank!

Borough Yards will be screening the ‘Summer of Sport’ from the beginning of Wimbledon in July until the end of the Paralympics in September.
The ‘Soap Yard’ will be transformed with outdoor screens, seating and pop-ups by the various restaurants, bars and shops.
Devonshire Square

There will also be a pop-up urban offering by Square Mile Farms between the 25th – 24th July, which will be hosted in a DSQube Pop Up Art Studio promoting a healthier and sustainable lifestyle to visitors. This will include public workshops, food sampling of delicious recipes from herbs grown in the farm, activities to embrace the British summer – more information to come soon.
