24th Post - April Overview
So here are my April posts, hope you enjoy them and find them interesting to watch, listen, eat, read and of course not forgetting about shopping for your new Spring wardrobe. In the meantime, April has much to offer especially in London, April means the sun is shining, the flowers are blooming and it's about time us Londoners breathed in some fresh air. Head out this spring and take in all the best new events and exhibitions in the capital.
Tour The Royal Opera House:
Having secured its position as one of the world’s great opera houses following a turn-of-the-century refurbishment, the Royal Opera House has been able to conduct something of a PR campaign: in a bold move to woo new audiences, the opening performance of 2008’s ‘Don Giovanni’ was made exclusive to Sun readers at knockdown rates and beamed live to a chain of cinemas, and the Ignite Festival draws punters in with a terrific range of art installations, films and performances. Opera, of course is still the main attraction, but ballet too has become a parallel draw and the ROH is also home to The Royal Ballet. The company’s own Carlos Acosta can be seen bounding across stage, and the Royal Opera House regularly invites visiting companies such as The Bolshoi. Meanwhile the venue’s smaller spaces – Linbury Studio Theatre and Clore Studio – offer a line-up of experimental and independent dance and music works. The Royal Opera House is a Grade I-listed building, and with its beautiful modern additions it is a striking Covent Garden landmark.
With its cheering crowds and fancy dress fundraisers, the London Marathon is our very own world-famous running race. Covering 26.2 miles and shutting down roads left, right and centre, it takes over the city for one weekend every April. Here's all you need to know about running the London Marathon 2016, whether you're a road-pounding-pro or a newbie in a Disney costume. This year's marathon takes place on Sunday April 24 2016. Attracting professionals, celebrities and some truly impractical outfits, the London Marathon is a 26.2 mile race around the streets of London. One of the key London events in spring, it attracts just as many supporters as participants, and the atmosphere on the day is something truly special. Those who'd like to run can enter by ballot or take up a fundraising place via their favourite charity.
