London is getting back to business after the festive break. Here’s our top fun for this weekend.

As if anyone hasn’t noticed, Christmas and new year is starting to become a distant memory. So why not bring the kids and bid a fond adieu to festivities at the Geffrye Museum’s FREE Farewell Party Weekend!
The two day event will feature live music, street food, arts and crafts, lawn games, warming wintry cocktails and a lucky dip in in the gift shop. Until next year, Santa!

It’s that weirdest of weekends – but at least people speak to each other on public transport for once – the No Trousers Tube Ride is back!
What is it exactly? Well, it does what it says on the tin. It’s a fun-loving bunch of men and women who whip off their kecks and ride the tube for the sheer joy of doing it.
Want to take part? You can. Just rendez-vous at 3pm at the Leicester Square meeting place with a rucksack, follow your allotted group leader, remove clothing when instructed and enjoy a crazy commute!
