Cinema, music, theatre, nightlife
There are hundreds of films shown per evening in London, from the biggest West End cinemas to the suburban and alternative cinemas. No city in the world has such a array of music venues as well as a very popular theatre scene. We recommend the magazine "Time Out" which gives an in-depth view of events in the city.
