What's On in London
Sunday 28 June 2026
Sunday 28 June is one of those glorious London days where the city simply refuses to slow down — from sun-soaked rooftop reggae in Brixton to jazz by the riverside in Twickenham, the capital is humming with possibility. Whether you fancy a laugh, a skate, a riff, or a revelation about the beautiful game, there is a corner of London with your name on it today.
Highlights

MORE THAN A SHIRT Football Shirt Exhibition — Football shirts are so much more than sportswear — they are identity, memory, community, and sometimes outright obsession, and this exhibition at Barking Learning Centre sets out to prove exactly that. If you have ever felt a lump in your throat pulling on your club's colours, or spent hours hunting a vintage away kit, this is your Sunday pilgrimage. Check the website for admission details and get there early — 10:00am — to beat the crowds.

London Reggae & Food Festival - Rooftop Edition — Imagine warm summer air, a rooftop view, plates of seriously good food, and a sound system pumping reggae into the Brixton sky — that is exactly what Freight Brixton is delivering from 3:00pm today. Tickets range from £0 to £20, making it one of the most accessible feel-good afternoons in the city, and the rooftop setting alone is worth the trip. Come hungry, stay for the vibes, and let Sunday evening take care of itself.

Open Age Early Session — Rollernation's early afternoon skate session from 12:00pm is pure, uncut joy on wheels — a reminder that roller skating never really went anywhere and is, frankly, more fun than almost anything else you could do on a Sunday. At £15, it is a brilliant mid-day adventure for anyone who wants to channel their inner disco era, and the rink's atmosphere is warm and welcoming whether you are a seasoned glider or a wobbling beginner. Lace up and get moving.

Tommaso Starace - Jazz on the Plaza — Out in Twickenham, Cafe Yukari is hosting an intimate jazz set with Tommaso Starace from 7:30pm — the kind of evening where the music wraps around you like the last light of a summer sunset. Starace is a saxophonist of real finesse, and catching him in a setting this close and personal, for £20, feels like an absolute steal. Treat it as the perfect bookend to a long, wonderful Sunday.
SUN 6:30PM: (Includes free drink) | City Comedy CLub | Trapeze Bar — Five pounds gets you into a stand-up comedy night at the Trapeze Bar — and it includes a free drink, which may be the greatest value proposition in London this evening. The City Comedy Club has a knack for pairing fresh talent with seasoned performers, and the bar's underground energy makes every punchline land that little bit harder. Doors from 6:30pm; arrive ready to laugh and leave with a new favourite comedian.

Immortal Disfigurement + Gutrectomy — Not for the faint-hearted, but absolutely for anyone who considers the New Cross Inn their spiritual home — Immortal Disfigurement and Gutrectomy bring heavy, uncompromising metal to South East London from 6:00pm tonight. At £20, it is a proper gig in a venue with a genuine underground pedigree, and there is something genuinely thrilling about a Sunday night that ends with your ears ringing and your faith in live music completely restored. If you know, you know.
