The 26.2-mile route winds past some of London’s most recognisable landmarks, from Tower Bridge to Buckingham Palace, with crowds lining the pavements from start to finish. Whether you’re cheering someone on or simply soaking up the atmosphere, expect a city-wide buzz, plenty of inspiring stories and a few creative costumes along the way. *Sunday 26th April* *Visit* [TCSLONDONMARATHON.COM](https://www.londonmarathonevents.co.uk/london-marathon) ## CULTURE #### A Midsummer Night’s Dream Few summer traditions feel as quintessentially London as a performance at Shakespeare's Globe, and this season sees the return of *A Midsummer Night’s Dream*. Set within the open-air theatre, the production leans into the play’s sense of mischief and magic, with tangled love stories, playful performances and plenty of theatrical spectacle. *21 New Globe Walk, South Bank, SE1 9DT* *Visit* [SHAKESPEARESGLOBE.COM](https://www.shakespearesglobe.com/whats-on/a-midsummer-nights-dream/) [ ![Unnatural Harmony: The Sounds Of Lee Alexander McQueen](https://media.sheerluxe.com/c53NhA6csN4n1sXMAKvWVYtOEcI=/800x0/smart/https%3A%2F%2Fsheerluxe.com%2Fsites%2Fsheerluxe%2Ffiles%2Farticles%2F2026%2F04%2Fsl-230426-what-to-do-this-weekend-alexander-mcqueen-giovanni-giannoni.jpg?itok=ew7CicnU) ](https://www.southbankcentre.co.uk/whats-on/unnatural-harmony-sounds-of-lee-alexander-mcqueen/) Unnatural Harmony: The Sounds Of Lee Alexander McQueen #### Unnatural Harmony: The Sounds Of Lee Alexander McQueen Southbank Centre is hosting a one-off deep dive into the sonic world of Alexander McQueen, exploring how music shaped some of his most iconic runway moments. *Unnatural Harmony* brings together collaborators and sound experts to unpack the role of sound in McQueen’s work – from haunting scores to unexpected track choices that defined his shows. *Southbank Centre, Belvedere Road, South Bank SE1 8XX* *Visit* [SOUTHBANKCENTRE.CO.UK](https://www.southbankcentre.co.uk/whats-on/unnatural-harmony-sounds-of-lee-alexander-mcqueen/) #### David Bowie: You’re Not Alone A decade on from his death, David Bowie remains one of our most influential cultural figures – and now Lightroom is offering a new way to experience his work. *You’re Not Alone* is a large-scale immersive show that draws on material from the Bowie archive, combining rare footage, handwritten lyrics and personal notes with 360º visuals and spatial audio. Narrated in Bowie’s own voice, it’s a personal portrait that explores everything from creativity to identity in a way that feels both expansive and intimate. *12 Lewis Cubitt Square, King’s Cross, N1C 4DY; until 28th June* *Visit* [LIGHTROOM.UK](https://lightroom.uk/whats-on/david-bowie-youre-not-alone/) [ ![David Bowie: You’re Not Alone](https://media.sheerluxe.com/7KDZYBIzWypUNP_Y0nApSQjDC8g=/800x0/smart/https%3A%2F%2Fsheerluxe.com%2Fsites%2Fsheerluxe%2Ffiles%2Farticles%2F2026%2F04%2Fsl-230426-what-to-do-this-weekend-david-bowie-lightroom.jpg?itok=_3R0kswn) ](https://lightroom.uk/whats-on/david-bowie-youre-not-alone/) David Bowie: You’re Not Alone ## FOOD & DRINK #### SW1 Sips At The Berkeley The Berkeley is spotlighting its postcode with a new cocktail concept that feels distinctly local. *SW1 Sips* takes inspiration from some of the area’s most recognisable names – from Anya Hindmarch to couturier Stewart Parvin – as well as neighbourhood institutions like The Grenadier. The result is a playful but polished drinks list that nods to Belgravia’s heritage, all served in suitably refined surroundings. *Wilton Place, Knightsbridge, SW1X 7RL* *Follow* [@THE\_BERKELEY](https://www.instagram.com/the_berkeley/#) #### Cantoast Bakery After building a loyal following on the pop-up circuit, Cantoast has secured its first semi-permanent home in Marylebone as part of Westminster’s Meanwhile On initiative.
