Embrace the City of London Festival

Festival season has certainly started, and today the month-long City of London Festival kicks off, a free festival that has run since 1962, with the aim of returning a sense of culture to the City.


Today, alongside a Festival Service to kick things off at St Paul's Cathedral, we also see the opening of an art installation at the Great Eastern Hotel near Liverpool Street and another art installation put together by school kids at St Lawrence Jewry based around a metal foundry. If you don't think today's events are worth the trip in themselves, don't fear, as there are scores of others you could combine with them, continuing until 26th July.
