The Late Edition

London's evening edition. Independent, updated daily.

Coming up in London: what opens, and when

Places opening in the next few months, and everything dated further ahead than this week.

Two lists, in order of how far away they are: the places that have announced an opening date, and the dated listings further out than the coming week. Pick a month to narrow the second one.

Everything here is a date somebody has announced rather than one we expect. Where a date is the usual pattern and not yet confirmed, the listing says so rather than rounding it up to a promise.

The annual fixtures, the ones that come round every year at roughly the same time, have a page each in our guides.

Opening soon

All openings

Further ahead

Everything

Four months of dated listings, newest first. Pick a month to narrow it, or use the planner to filter by night, kind, area and price. The annual fixtures, from Christmas to Bonfire Night, have their own guides.

  3. Sport Free

    Dogs on Hampstead Heath

    07:00 Hampstead Heath, Hampstead

    Eight hundred acres, off lead almost everywhere, and the one swimming pond dogs are allowed in is not one of the bathing ponds. Busiest at the Parliament Hill end on a weekend morning.

  4. Exhibitions Free

    Free entry: Westminster Cathedral

    07:00 Westminster Cathedral, Victoria

    Neo Byzantine, still unfinished above the arches, and free to walk into. The campanile lift is ticketed and gives one of the least crowded views in central London.

    Leadenhall Market

    07:00 Leadenhall Market, The City

    A Victorian covered market in cream and burgundy, free to walk through and open to the street. Busy with the City at lunch and almost empty at the weekend, which is when to photograph it.

  6. Free

    Parliament Hill viewpoint

    07:00 Parliament Hill, Hampstead

    A protected view all the way to the City, which is why nothing is allowed to be built in front of it. Ten minutes up from Gospel Oak and worth doing an hour before sunset.

  7. Sport Free

    Dogs in Richmond Park

    07:30 Richmond Park, Richmond

    The largest of the royal parks and the one with the deer, which is why dogs must be on a lead in May and June and in September and October. The gates open and close with the light.

  9. Exhibitions Free

    Free entry: Southwark Cathedral

    08:00 Southwark Cathedral, Borough

    Free, next door to the market, and almost always empty by comparison. Shakespeare's brother is buried here and there is a memorial to the man himself along the south aisle.

  11. Free

    St James’s Park, free all day

    08:00 St James's Park, Westminster

    The oldest of the royal parks and the one with the pelicans, fed near Duck Island in the afternoon. The bridge gives the view down the lake to Horse Guards that ends up on the postcards.

    Churchill War Rooms

    09:30 Churchill War Rooms, Westminster

    The bunker left as it was on the day it closed in 1945, down to the pins in the map. Book a slot: it sells out, and the queue on the day is outdoors.

  16. Exhibitions From £30

    09:30 Westminster Abbey, Westminster

    Ticketed for sightseeing, free if you come to a service, and Evensong is sung most weekday afternoons in term. The Queen's Diamond Jubilee Galleries are up in the triforium, which most visitors miss.

  17. Free

    Carnaby Street and the courts

    10:00 Carnaby Street, Soho

    The street itself takes five minutes; Kingly Court behind it takes an afternoon. Three floors of a courtyard with the roof open in summer and closed in winter.

  18. Exhibitions From £24

    Frameless

    10:00 Frameless, Marylebone

    Four rooms of projected painting, floor to ceiling, under Marble Arch. Permanent rather than a touring show, so there is no rush, and quietest in the first hour of the day.

  19. Exhibitions Free

    Free entry: Kenwood House

    10:00 Kenwood House, Hampstead

    A Robert Adam house at the top of the Heath with a Rembrandt self portrait and a Vermeer in it, and no admission charge. The library is the room people stand in longest.
