Totally Thames — London's annual celebration of everything riverine — is back this September. Here, we dip our toe into the cultural waters, to bring you our pick of events.
Hosted by the Thames Festival Trust, Totally Thames runs across 20 boroughs (including the City) from 1-30 September 2026. It's awash with exhibitions, performances, art installations, boat trips, walks, talks and more — all designed to help you learn about, and appreciate, the Thames. London's multitude of other rivers, docks, and beaches are celebrated too.
