A new found atmosphere sweeps the city of London at night.
Theatre-goers populate the restaurants for their pre-show meals before making their way to London’s famous West End and its top quality theatre shows. The pubs and bars are full of office workers having after-work drinks, with people spilling out onto the pavements on a warm summer’s evening. Oxford Street and Regent Street are still buzzing with shoppers – locals and tourists alike and iconic locations such as Leicester Square, China Town and the South Bank are a hive of activity. London has a diverse and popular music scene – catch a live performance at venues ranging from an intimate local bar to the 02 or Wembley stadium. Or why not check out one of the many comedy nights or go clubbing.
