Organisations including English Heritage, Open House and the BFI are involved, alongside the Museum of London, Horniman Museum, London Transport Museum, and hopefully local museums. There will even be a special 'London Poems on the Underground' booklet.
A few highlights include a walking weekend on 6-7 June; the 'living weekend' on 20-21 June which will see jousting at Eltham Palace and a Victorian country fair at Kenwood House; a river pageant on 20 June marking 500 years since Henry VIII became king; and the story of London in one day (6 and 7 June). Both the lecture series on 20-21 June and the Lives of Buildings events on 26-28 June look particularly promising.
There isn't a lot of detail online yet, so it's probably worth registering to be kept up to date. And keeping June free...
