The Bloomsbury Festival is a free celebration that draws 50,000 people to London’s most inspiring cultural quarter.
With a theme of vitality, this year’s festival is a journey of discovery for mind, body and imagination.
Over six days 200 free events will showcase an eclectic programme of pioneering art, music, dance and literature, while also giving a voice and new skills to diverse young, older and disabled people.

Spend your lunchtime browsing the shelves with a complimentary glass of Madeira and a cucumber sandwich, at Persephone Books, the Lamb’s Conduit Street home of 20th century women writers.
Or enjoy one of the many walks and tours taking place as part of the festival including an exclusive guided tour of the stunning neoclassical landmark Victoria House.
Get involved at the Grant Museum of Zoology at Museums Showoff, a chaotic cabaret night where staff and fans of museums in Bloomsbury take to the stage to show off their work!
Do women read emotions while men read maps? Is the secret of human behaviour inside our skulls? Find out in Timandra Harkness’ highly-praised solo show Brainsex from this summer’s Edinburgh Fringe. ‘Fun and thought-provoking’
