Things to do in London this weekend: build your own route
The best weekend plan combines one anchor experience with flexible food, walking and weather-proof alternatives.

Choose one anchor
Start with the exhibition, performance, match, market or neighbourhood you most want to experience. Build the rest around its location and time.
Keep the geography tight
London travel can consume a day. Combine places that sit on the same line, walking route or side of the river.
Create a weather switch
Pair a park or street market with a museum, gallery or covered food hall nearby. Check opening and booking information on the day.
Protect the evening
Book the time-sensitive part, but leave room before and after it. A good London weekend needs pauses as much as attractions.
