  • Summary

  • Welcome to 'Time IN London' on this crisp Sunday, 24th November 2024 As the winter season sets in, London is buzzing with a festive vibe, complete with the chill of autumn in the air and a hint of holiday cheer.

    Today, the city is alive with a variety of events to suit every interest. For theatre enthusiasts, don't miss the epic adventure of 'The Lightning Thief: The Percy Jackson Musical' or the hilarious antics in 'The Play That Goes Wrong' at the Duchess Theatre. If you're in the mood for music, the EFG London Jazz Festival, although ending today, has left a jazz-filled atmosphere that you can still catch at various venues around the city[3][4].

    Families can enjoy the magical world of Disney's 'The Lion King Musical' at the Lyric Theatre, complete with stunning animal puppetry, or glide into the festive season with ice skating at the historic Hampton Court Palace or the Battersea Power Station[1][3].

    For those looking for something unique, head to the Natural History Museum for an early morning yoga session beneath the blue whale, or visit the Formula 1 Exhibition at London's ExCel Centre for a high-octane experience[1].

    In local news, the Southbank Centre is gearing up for its Wintertime Market, offering mulled wine, eggnog, and Nordic-styled festive shopping. Public transit updates include no major disruptions today, making it a perfect day to explore the city[3][4].

    Must-do activities for the day include a visit to the free-entry Hampton Court Palace gardens, a stroll through the Chelsea Physic Garden, or exploring the historical Lambeth Town Hall. For a hidden gem, check out the silent cinema screenings with live musical accompaniment at Brentford[2].

    Here’s a local tip: Did you know that today is traditionally 'Stir Up Sunday,' the day when families make their Christmas puddings? Why not join in this tradition and make your own pudding while enjoying the festive atmosphere?

    Looking forward to tomorrow, be sure to tune in for updates on the closing exhibitions, such as the Bloomsbury group art and literature celebration, and the start of new festive markets and ice skating rinks popping up across the city[2][4].
