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.
Easter Egg Hunts – such family fun!
Easter Egg Hunts
Many venues throughout London are organising special Easter egg hunt trails this year, that are sure to get you in the spirit! Here are some of our favourites:
The Lindt Gold Bunny Hunt at Hampton Court Palace
This Easter, the Lindt Gold Bunny Easter hunt returns to Hampton Court Palace, with a trail of gold bunny statues hiding throughout the historic grounds. Each one will reveal a story about a character from the palace’s past, and once collected, you will receive a Lindt Gold Bunny chocolate reward. What could be better than delicious food that is also educational?
