Between The Bridges

Between The Bridges | Huge Al Fresco Hangout

Welcome to Between The Bridges, London’s 4,000 sq ft festival of fun – which can most boringly be described as a “really big beer garden” but should more accurately be described as “a massive, free to enter al fresco adult playground which fuses a smorgasbord of bars and street food with DJs, live music, drag brunches and special events; all packed into four different dining areas right by the Thames.”

It’s called Between The Bridges – possibly because it’s located between Westminster and Hungerford Bridges, but who knows – and tickets are now on sale for drag brunches hosted by Ru Paul’s Drag Race stars like Lawrence Chaney, Baga Chipz and Trinity K Bonet; bawdy late-night events from Guilty Pleasures; live gigs from the ultimate brass troupe, Old Dirty Brasstards; cabaret from the Black Cat troupe with acrobats and go-go dancers; makers markets with the SoLo Craft Fair; and DJ nights featuring big names like Norman Jay MBE and DJ Yoda. All of which take place under heated, covered, festoon-lit tents: this is England, after all.

The food and drink options at Between The Bridges are plentiful too, thanks to a sizeable line up of street food traders including Made of Dough; The BBQ Dept; and Chick’n’Sours; and pop up bars serving craft beers and spritz cocktails.

Sounds like the safest place to be if we get another heatwave…

 

NOTE: Between The Bridges is open Tuesday – Sunday. Entry is free, but the events are ticketed – you can see what’s on, and book, here.
