Did you know?
"Dulwich Picture Gallery was the first public art gallery in Britain. It was created from a collection of art compiled at the request of the King of Poland, but when he abdicated following Poland's conquest by Russia and Prussia, it left the curators with a massive collection. On their death they left it all to Dulwich College and decreed in their will that it must be displayed to the public."
I do not know of a better park in London with more to offer than Brockwell Park - a lido, BMX track, miniature railway, tennis courts...

Daraa Tribes
Daraa Tribes are a musical collective born in the heart of the Moroccan Sahara. Their live performances are known for their energy, emotional power, and ceremonial quality, transforming each show into a collective ritual of connection and rhythm. Their music draws deeply from oral traditions and spiritual rituals, creating a journey through sound and soul. It blends traditional percussion instruments-such as the tbel, grageb, and bendir - with modern elements like electric guitar, sound effects, and live improvisation. The result is a rich, immersive experience the band calls "Saharan Organic Trance" - both grounded and transcendent. Presented by Hootananny Brixton. This is an 18+ eventRead more
Robbie Isn't Real + George Patrick = This Bright Condition
These two die-hard Radiohead fans (and childhood best friends) have been writing songs together for over a decade. In recent times, they have found themselves writing independently to understand and express the peculiarities of their individual life paths. Whilst Robbie's songwriting draws more from the cherished bands of his teenage years (Killers, Foals, Kasabian, My Chemical Romance), and George tends to take influence more from solo singer-songwriters like Ben Howard, Bon Iver and, of course (when he's not fronting Radiohead) Thom Yorke, their songs often centre around similar themes: the longing for transcendence, for connection, for understanding, for love; the angst and despair that can accompany these longings and efforts to fulfill them; and the serenity, wisdom, and beauty that can arrive when we persevere in trying to understand ourselves and the world long enough to reach some kind of breathrough - something their songwriting has always been a central part of facilitating. You will struggle to find people who care more about the art of songwriting than these two. Should you come and witness this dual-headline set, you will find yourself nodding in accord. Oh, and expect a surprise at the end, from This Bright Condition, (which you can find on SoundCloud).Read more
