Out on a school night and want to know what’s on in London this week? Naughty.

But you shouldn’t just head straight for home just because it’s a Wednesday. Not when there are more events, exhibitions, pop-ups, theatre shows and gigs happening in a week than you could possibly fit in your calendar. Forget waiting for the weekend, these are the the best things on in London this week, and not all of them will leave you with a raging hangover on a work day, which is nice.

Looking for inspiration on what to do in all of London’s greatest neighbourhoods including Shoreditch, Soho, Notting Hill, Hackney and more? Then check out our awesome guide to London’s best hoods with all the best places to eat, drink, and shop.
