What’s On This Weekend: Feria De Londres, Flowerful Elephant & Language of Flowers

Feria De Londres on South Bank

If you are a fan of Spanish food and culture, hop along to the Feria de Londres in Bernie Spain Gardens on South Bank near the Oxo Tower that is running all weekend. Following on from the success of last year, the Feria de Londres is set to bring the lively and vibrant celebrations of the Andalusian region to the banks of the River Thames. There will be plenty of dancing, music and live entertainment as well as typical delicious dishes and drinks to sip on. People will show up in their finest traditional costume and the public are encouraged to get involved and dress for the occasion too. If you fancy some tasty food or the chance to take part in an outdoor flamenco lesson, then this is the place to be! Only a short walk from our London Bridge office, drop in and say hello to our team if you’re interested in looking at properties to rent or properties to buy in the area.

Zip Now in Lambeth

Zip Now has come to the Archbishop’s Park on Lambeth Palace Road for the second year running. If you’re a thrill seeker and love the feeling of wind in your hair, then this is a great way to spend an afternoon this weekend. Catch never-before seen views of London’s iconic skyline from 100 feet above (the equivalent of 9 double decker buses!) as you hurtle along the 225-metre zip wire. The aerial view of the London Eye, Houses of Parliament, Big Ben and the Shard will be spectacular.

Flowerful Elephant in Elephant & Castle

As part of the culmination of the Chelsea Fringe Festival, join the organisers in Elephant & Castle’s newest park space as they kick off the summer with a neighbourhood green gathering this Saturday called Flowerful Elephant. To celebrate the week of talks and walks in the area, this fun-filled family day will commemorate all things growing, healthy, wellbeing and flowerful in this special little pocket of London. There will be some great performances on the day as well as stalls, games, workshops and classes led by a number of local organisations so head a long with the family for a fun day out between 12pm and 5pm.

Language of Flowers on Battersea Park

As part of the Chelsea Fringe Festival which has been taking place since 9th May, the Pump House Pavilion in Battersea Park will be hosting a special workshop on Sunday. Called Language of Flowers, this workshop will show how floriography was once used as a means of coded communication, allowing people to express feelings which otherwise could not be spoken. You will be able to make flower prints on postcards which you can send as special messages to your friends, family or enemies. Declare your love, or tell your roommate to pack their bags and invent a new flower language at this family-friendly workshop! Only a short bus ride away from our Westminster office, if you’re interested in looking at properties to rent or properties to buy in the area, feel free to drop in and hello to our team who would be happy to help.

Germany Vs Wine in Victoria

In collaboration with Wines of Germany, Vagabond Wines have been putting on a season of events celebrating the best that Germany has to offer. As the grand finale of their celebration, Vagabond Wines will be pitting Deutschland’s varietals against offerings from all over the world for you to taste and to show you that there is so much more to German wines than just Riesling. At Germany Vs Wine, you will be able to compare and contrast while munching on their delicious cheese and charcuterie offerings as well. For an afternoon of discovery, elucidation and fantastic wines, head down to their Victoria store at 1.30pm.

If you’re interested in finding out more about future events in Westminster, London, Kennington and the surrounding areas, feel free to drop by any of our offices – we’ll be glad to provide you with a list.
