概要

 Hey listeners, welcome to your friendly guide for what to do in London this week, starting right now on this sunny Sunday, April 19th. Kick off your day with a hands-on adventure by joining the Thames Explorer Trust for In the Footsteps of Mudlarks at Millennium Bridge on the north side. From 9 to 11 AM, you'll scramble down to the foreshore, hunting for treasures like smoking pipes, pottery shards, bones, and drainpipes revealed by the tide—it's like time travel through London's gritty history from the bridge to Queenhithe Dock. Perfect for history buffs or anyone craving fresh air and surprises.

Today also marks the opening weekend of the brand-new V&A East museum in Stratford, as Time Out reports. Dive into its 7,000-square-metre space with the Why We Make Galleries tackling big contemporary issues, plus the inaugural exhibit The Music is Black: A British Story, featuring Joan Armatrading's childhood guitar, Little Simz outfits, and photos by Dennis Morris. It's a fresh take on east London's creative pulse—go early to beat the crowds.

Hop over to the London Bus Museum for their Spring Gathering, where vintage red buses rumble back to life, or test ride e-bikes at the Cycling Electric demo day for some eco-friendly fun. Music lovers, catch ABBA Voyage at the ABBA Arena for that nostalgic disco blast, or groove to Sunday Soul Sessions at Boisdale in Canary Wharf. And don't miss the monthly open day at Little Holland House for a peek into hidden arts and crafts heritage.

The week's buzzing as we head into Monday through Friday. The London Games Festival wraps up today with its Official Selection of over 30 innovative games across themes like Best of British and Pixel Power—check out in-person exhibitions if you're a gamer geek.

This weekend's Earth Day Weekender at Somerset House, as Londonist highlights, runs a three-day blast of art, workshops, and talks probing environmental wonders—think immersive installs and green crafts to spark your eco-passion.

Looking ahead to the week's end, gear up for the London Marathon on the 26th—line the streets to cheer runners pounding past iconic landmarks. Swing by Brick Lane Jazz Festival from the 24th to 26th at Truman Brewery for soul-stirring sets from rising stars, or celebrate St George's Day on the 23rd with parades and patriotism.

Whether you're mudlarking, museum-hopping, or marathon-spectating, London's alive with spring energy—grab your Oyster card and dive in!
