The best events this weekend 27-29 June
Too many free events are taking place in the capital every single weekend but most of them are nothing special… We just don’t like to give a shout out about random free gigs so the idea behind this weekly post is to let you know about the best free weekend events in London that we would also like attend. By the way, we also include Friday events cause for most of us the weekend starts from Friday evening, no? Without further ado here is our Top 5 Free Events in London this weekend 27-29 of June 2014!
