The Mayor’s Thames Festival is London’s largest free festival, showcasing the capital’s incredible creativity and bringing together people from all communities to celebrate the city and the River Thames.

A vibrant mixture of live music, dance, art installations, carnival, river races and street arts, the festival transforms the Thames and its banks and brings Londoners together at the heart of their city. Events take place on the river itself, the riverside walkways, roads, bridges and public open spaces from the London Eye to St Katharine Docks. Come down to the river in September and celebrate the cultural diversity and creativity of London in grand style!

Expect to be dazzled, inspired and delighted by extraordinary new art commissions; films and performances on the riverside; beach-combing and bonfires on the foreshore; walks, talks, and explorations; slow cruises; fast boats; and dozens of incentives to get you onto London’s greatest natural asset.

It's been wonderful so far- I've had many comments about the beauty of the classic boats collection here at St Katharine Docks. It's still marvelous even during the week, with lots of people coming to enjoy the area and there are many different boats to admire; the children all seem to be fascinated. Do come along to my 'Celebrating St Katharine's' exhibition- people have been delighted to learn more about the history of the area, and the map and guide is proving very popular.
