What's On in London
Monday 10 August 2026 · This weekend · City guide
Monday might carry a reputation for slow starts, but London is having absolutely none of it this 10th of August. From the whoosh of wheels on a rink to the roar of punk legends lighting up South East London, the city is serving up a proper mixed bag of summer joy. Lace up, turn up, and make the most of it.
Highlights
School's Out | Rollernation — Summer holidays and roller skating were practically made for each other, and Rollernation's School's Out session at 1:00pm is the kind of afternoon that turns into a core memory. Strap on your skates, throw yourself into the colourful chaos of one of London's best-loved rinks, and let the music carry you around the floor. At £16, it's brilliant value for a family outing that will have everyone grinning from ear to ear — little ones and grown-ups alike.
MDC (Millions Of Dead Crops) — If your Monday needs a serious shot of adrenaline, New Cross Inn is the place to be at 6:00pm when MDC — Millions Of Dead Crops — roll into town. These punk legends have been a furious, uncompromising force since the early 1980s, and a live set from them in a venue as raw and intimate as New Cross Inn is the sort of gig that reminds you why live music matters. Grab your £18 ticket, head south of the river, and prepare to have your ears rearranged in the best possible way.
