AMERICAN INDEPENDENCE DAY: Fourth of July is always a big deal for our American cousins, and even more so this year, as 2026 marks the 250th anniversary of the United States Declaration of Independence. We've put together a guide to special events, as well as some of our favourite all-American restaurants and hot spots around London, so you can celebrate in style this weekend. Around 4 July 2026
EEL PIE ISLAND: The first of this summer's open weekends at Eel Pie Island is this Saturday and Sunday. It's a chance to set foot on the private island off Twickenham, visit the artists who live and work there in their studios — and of course, buy artworks straight from the source. FREE (booking required), 4-5 (and 11-12 July) 2026
