The best free events this weekend 2-4 October
By Manolis Zografakis
There are a lot of great free things to do in London this weekend 2-4 October. On Friday, Late at Tate Britain explores representations of status through time with free screenings, music, talks and installations. On Saturday, there is an interesting live pop/punk music night at Silver Bullet in Finsbury Parkas (part of the We Shall Overcome weekend of events taking place all over the country in solidarity with all those at the sharp end of the austerity cuts). On Saturday and Sunday, you can head down to Brixton to the Crafty Fox Market where you will find over 90 makers, designers and crafters offering a pick of homewares, jewellery, prints and gifts. Finally, it’s the last weekend of the year at Dinerama on Great Eastern Street in Shoreditch so if you love quality street food you shouldn’t miss this last chance to visit the famous pop up food market. If our top 5 isn’t enough for you have a look at the Top 10 Free events in October. Enjoy the weekend!
