Got a spare afternoon to hand and want to be outside in the fresh air? There are hundreds of acres of parklands for you to discover on the Park!

Why not take a stroll through the picturesque London Blossom Garden planted with 33 blossom trees representing the boroughs of London, including City of London. Or bring a picnic to the Park Meadows, a series of lawns near the Olympic rings, which in spring and summer bloom with the colour of beautiful wildflowers. You could also explore the River Lea paths, and follow the waterways that wind through The Park. Learn all about the different gardens and open spaces on the Park and find your favourite.

Then relax with a hot drink and snacks at one of the many cafés dotted around the park such as the Timber Lodge Café or Riverside East. A perfect day out!

The Park is teeming with cultural activity with even more on the way. Why not explore the Art on the Park trail and take in the 28 different artworks all around the Park? If you want to travel further afield, follow The Line walking art trail which starts in the Park and goes all the way to The O2. 

East Bank is London's newest cultural quarter at the heart of the Park. From February 2025, Sadler's Wells East's new 550-seat theatre and hip-hop academy is set to open with Our Mighty Groove by Vicki Igbokwe-Ozoagu. Later in 2025 will see the opening of V&A East's Museum and Storehouse - due to house the 80,000 piece David Bowie archive. Also planned for the future is the BBC Music Studios, which is set to become the new home for the London Symphony Orchestra. So exciting!

If music is more your style then catch the stunning concert - ABBA Voyage! Marvel as Agnetha, Björn, Benny and Anni-Frid perform digitally through the use of cutting-edge technology, spectacular lighting and a live 10-piece band.
