Wimbledon is here — tradition, tennis, and timeless magic

Tennis fans worldwide are eagerly awaiting the 138th edition of the Wimbledon Championships, taking place this year from 30th of June to 13th of July, on the legendary grass courts of the All England Lawn Tennis Club in Wimbledon, London.

What’s more, for those seeking the ultimate way to experience it all, London Magical Tours is your perfect companion—offering Wimbledon Tennis VIP Tours that bring you closer to the action than ever before.

Spring is coming to London

As spring blooms and Easter approaches, why not celebrate this Spring break in the world’s greatest city? There is truly something for everyone during the Easter break in London.

Here are just some example of upcoming festive events to attend this Easter:

Classical Music

Easter, the largest Christian festival, has inspired many generations of composers. Regardless of your religion, you can experience some of the world’s finest compositions at the St Johns Smith Square music festival, which includes works by Schubert and Haydn, as well as a 300th anniversary celebration of Bach’s Passion.

Kew Gardens
As spring blooms, Kew Gardens is the perfect place to visit in March, an ideal location for an Easter weekend walkabout. There are plenty of pretty petals to find, from the Cherry Walk lined with pink-blossomed Japanese cherry trees, to the primrose and crocus-filled woodland garden.

The Passion of Christ Performance

This inspiring performance has become an Easter tradition in the heart of our capital, as Londoner’s witness a live re-telling of Jesus’ final days and resurrection. 100 performers will perform in Trafalgar Square on Good Friday.

Horniman Museum Spring Fair

The Horniman Museum’s fabulous annual spring fair features a variety of family-friendly activities including live music, craft workshops and stalls, face painting, children’s rides, a bouncy castle, giant games, food vendors and garden tours.
