Britpop Heaven, Swiftageddon & More @ Between The Bridges This Summer

London in the sunshine is something to behold, and even better when beheld with a refreshing drink in hand. So we are delighted to see that Between The Bridges, South Bank’s legendary destination for fun and frivolity, is back, bigger and better than ever this year.

Offering a 360 Experience of the finest street food selection, an endless drink menu and a varied mix of free and ticketed events BTB is yet again an unmissable addition to London’s Summer event spaces.

Having enjoyed a fantastic Prosecco Supernove Britpop brunch in June, hosted by Sleeper’s ageless Louise Wener, we can testify that a day out at B2B is all you need and more to enjoy summer in the city. Service is exceptional, and the atmosphere is electric.

Party on the South Bank

Positioned along the riverside, with the neighbouring London Eye and cityscape as its majestic backdrop, Between The Bridges is the perfect point to unwind in the middle of bustling London. The 2025 Calendar is full to the brim with an eclectic programme of drag shows, DJs, live performances and themed club nights, not to mention incredible regular free events.

Alongside special events, resident DJs return with free entry nights Thursday to Sunday all summer. Saturdays bring Guilty Pleasures with unexpected pop and R&B from the 90s–00s, while Thursdays feature Flexin’ with throwback R&B, Hip Hop, and Garage. Fridays groove with Dock Disco, blending house and Neo Disco, and Sundays serve Balearic beats, boogie, afro, cosmic, and oddball disco. Residency events are free, alongside a ticketed lineup of unique shows.

SoLo Craft Fair offers a creative extravaganza on the first Sunday of each month where visitors can explore over 60 talented London makers and designers, featuring fashion, art, jewellery, and plants. Dive into this vibrant world of local artisans, celebrating their craftsmanship at these bustling monthly markets.

Between the Bridges is the go-to destination for food, drink and fun along the South Bank. In the summer months expect a mix of indoor and outdoor areas and throughout the colder months and festive period the venue is heated, roofed and winter-proofed making it the perfect all year-around destination. Best of all, entry is totally FREE!

With a love of cheese and fine wine, Emily is more likely to be found chasing her toddlers round Kew Gardens than sipping champagne at a showbiz launch nowadays, or grabbing an hour out of her hectic freelancer's life to chill out in a spa while hubby holds the babies.
