What's on?
The Great Game: Afghanistan
The Tricycle Theatre's acclaimed Afghanistan season The Great Game returns to Kilburn for a short run, including a further new play, before a major US tour. Twelve playwrights thrillingly lay bare two centuries' worth of foreign intervention in the region.
Field Day
Field Day is a fun village fete with a top line-up of bands and DJs in London's Victoria Park. Try your luck with the traditional coconut shy and welly throwing, then get stuck into the barn dancing and morris dancing.
Blood Brothers
Willy Russell's Blood Brothers, running since 1988, continues at the Phoenix Theatre. Melanie C debuts as Mrs Johnstone (the first Spice Girl to play the West End) alongside twins Ben and Michael Sewell who play twins, Mickey and Eddie.
BBC Proms - Week Two
The BBC Proms' second week at the Royal Albert Hall ends with an 80-year-old Proms debutant: Stephen Sondheim. There are also visits by orchestras from Australia, Birmingham, Bremen and Cardiff.
Carnaval del Pueblo
The Carnaval del Pueblo, a vibrant celebration of Latin American culture, salsas its way into South London's Burgess Park. More than 100,000 people come for the Latino party, which incorporates music, food, parades and arts and crafts stalls.
