 Whether you are chasing festive spirit, family fun, or culture this week in London, there has never been a better time to get out and explore. Today, Thursday the 20th, those looking for a thrilling evening should check out the murder mystery event Death in the Shadows at 99 Dundas Street—it promises suspense and entertainment through an immersive whodunnit experience, perfect for those who love a little intrigue.

For listeners wanting to experience something historical, tonight marks the ceremonial locking of the Tower of London, a tradition visitors can witness in person in very limited numbers, as mentioned on Ian Visits. And keep an eye on Green Park at midday, where military gun salutes will ring out to celebrate the King’s birthday.

If you’re out with family, this week offers a feast of activities. On Saturday and Sunday, hop aboard the Grinchmas Afternoon Tea Sightseeing Bus Tour departing from Victoria Coach Station. This tour weaves through London’s famous landmarks while serving up roast beast sandwiches, green scones, and a hefty dose of Grinch-inspired mischief from a costumed entertainer, according to Dads in London. For little ones, head to the Little Angel Theatre in Islington for ‘Me’, a cuddly penguin puppet show running in multiple slots through the weekend.

For something uniquely Dickensian, the Charles Dickens Museum is hosting A Gothicly Grand Magic Lantern Christmas on both Saturday and Sunday. These showings feature Victorian special effects and spooky stories by candlelight right inside Dickens’s former home on Doughty Street, a great way to step back in time.

If live music is your vibe, the London Music Hall calendar is packed. Tonight at Rum Runners, catch the release show for Falls For The Elderly, while Friday night transforms the main hall into a massive holiday sing-along with Choir! Choir! Choir!’s Un-Silent Night. Saturday brings a double bill: Matthew Good and I Mother Earth will fill the hall, while over at Rum Runners, CURBI gets the late night crowd moving. Then on Sunday, it’s A Coast-to-Coast Cowboy Christmas with George Canyon and Aaron Pritchett.

West End theatre is magical this time of year, and London Theatreland reports that Mark Gatiss’ A Christmas Carol: A Ghost Story kicks off its haunting run at Alexandra Palace Theatre on Friday. For families, Paddington the Musical and classics like Mamma Mia! and Les Misérables are lighting up stages across the city.

Over at the Design Museum, the Wes Anderson: The Archives exhibition is a must for movie and art lovers, offering immersive sets and props from his pastel-coloured films every day through the weekend. For crafty types or festive shoppers, the SoLo Craft Fair sets up shop at St Martin-in-the-Fields Saturday and Sunday, with handmade gifts and free creative workshops.

Before wrapping up, Southbank Centre hosts free family concerts and Nigerian music showcases throughout the weekend. For a feel-good boost, Westfield London presents The Feel Good Edit on Saturday and Sunday from 2 to 3 PM, with walk-ins welcome.

Whatever your mood, London sparkles this week with opportunities to connect, create, and celebrate. Thanks for tuning in. Remember to subscribe to stay ahead of the city's best happenings week after week. This has been a quiet please production, for more check out quiet please dot ai.
