The Wonder Hill Market
The Miller, London Bridge, Free Entry, Saturday 11:30am to 5pm
I’m planning my second craft fair stall this weekend, which will be part of the Wonder Hill Market in Borough. Expect plenty of hand crafted goodies, vintage treasures and yummy Thai food to boot! Would be lovely to see you there!
Browns Pop-Up Sale
20th Century Theatre, Westbourne Grove, Today until 7pm
You’ll have to rush, but you can still make this epic sale after work! Browns is offering up to 80% off some amazing pieces by the likes of Acne, Chloé, Marc Jacobs, Lanvin and Alexander McQueen and lots more. Sounds too good to miss right?!
The Cheese & Wine Festival takes place again this weekend at the Southbank Centre. A celebration of Britain’s best ethical and artisan produce, the organisers aim to bring delicious food and drink to everyone, with no snobbery or gobbledygook. With an amazing list of exhibitors, any wine or cheese lover would be silly to miss it.
Have you got exciting plans for the weekend? Hope you enjoy whatever you do!
