The Late Edition

London's evening edition. Independent, updated daily.

Sports events in London this week

Things to do rather than things to watch, mostly: skating, swimming outdoors all year, bowling, darts and the walks long enough to count. The spectator fixtures that are free from the pavement, the marathon and the Boat Race among them, are here too.

What to expect

23 listings filed under Sport. The busiest rooms are Alexandra Palace, Electric Ballroom and Hyde Park. Concentrated in Shoreditch, Mayfair and Alexandra Palace.

Nearby

Every listing here has been checked against the venue that is putting it on.
