 London is bursting with energy this week, and listeners are in for a treat with the city’s packed calendar of events. Kicking off today and running through September 21, the London Design Festival transforms the capital into one giant gallery celebrating innovation and style. This year's highlights include The Flavour Library's interactive chocolate cityscape at Park Royal, the massive 11 Million Dots public artwork, and vibrant district days across Chelsea, Mayfair, and Shoreditch. For a fun family day out, Park Royal hosts special events this weekend as part of the festival, inviting everyone to immerse themselves in creativity, talks, and hands-on experiences.

Open House London also launches today, unlocking the doors to some of the city's most fascinating buildings typically closed to the public. From private homes of the rich and famous to a Battle of Britain bunker, over 800 locations are yours to explore for free—no booking needed for most places. Whether you want to peek into a striking architectural wonder or join a themed walk, this is your only chance this year to see many secret spaces.

Animal lovers won’t want to miss The Big Woof, a free dog festival at King’s Cross today and tomorrow. Expect fancy-dress fashion shows for pups, dog massages, culinary demos—yes, ice cream for canines—and plenty of goodies for both humans and their furry companions.

Art enthusiasts can browse striking ceramics at Ceramics in the City in Hoxton this weekend, meeting artists and seeing live demonstrations. Over in Notting Hill, the Museum of Brands launches a Thunderbirds toy exhibition today, marking 60 years since the iconic show first aired. With over 400 nostalgic items, it’s a walk down memory lane for Gerry Anderson fans.

Looking for an active way to spend the day? Marylebone Lane is pedestrianized for A Day on the Lane, featuring street food, live music, creative workshops, and workouts all in support of young Londoners.

If you want something quirky, Sunday morning brings London’s first Mushroom Chocolate A.M. Rave to Notting Hill, organized by Knoops and Dirtea. Enjoy complimentary “smart” hot chocolate, DJ sets, and the unique vibe of the city’s creative crowd. Meanwhile, film buffs can catch The Curious Case of Benjamin Button at Rooftop Film Club Stratford Sunday night and—if you want to start the week feeling refreshed—sign up for a wellness IV drip before settling in under the stars.

Sunday also brings the Ethiopian New Year celebration at Shepherd’s Bush Market, inviting adults and kids to join a lively art workshop and learn about traditions, all for just a couple of pounds.

Looking ahead, the fun keeps going with London Fashion Week kicking off September 18, and on September 20, the legendary Great River Race sees over 300 boats racing past 28 bridges from Millwall to Richmond in a spectacular river marathon.
