Queen Elizabeth Hall roof garden has reopened
The Southbank Centre’s wonderful rooftop wildflower garden has reopened for the spring and summer season.
Between the Bridges is a massive pop-up venue right in the middle of the South Bank, with more than a dozen different bars and food trucks to choose from, plus a busy live events programme that includes drag brunches and DJ nights.
The epic venue relaunches for another season on the South Bank just in time for the Easter weekend! Save the date for Thursday 17 April when Between the Bridges is throwing an opening party with the first 500 drinks served at the bar free of charge.
What’s on the entertainment line-up?
Between the Bridges’ raucous monthly Drag Brunch events are back for summer 2025, bringing to the floor some of the biggest names in UK drag. This year's headliners include Drag Race stars such as Tayce, Cara Melle and Elektra Fence led by resident Between the Bridges Queen Miss Leigh Ding.
When it comes to evening entertainment, there’s an eclectic mix of cult favourites on the lineup too. Look out for the return of the infamous Barrioke, the Taylor Swift club night Swiftoggedon and the tweed-clad, 10-piece brass powerhouse, Old Dirty Brasstards. New party nights for summer 2025 include Club Tropicana, an 80s theme night with wall-to-wall classic pop including singalonga karaoke on the big screen, and Femininomenon, an all-woman pop club night.
What’s on the menu?
There’s a variety of sponsored bars serving local and mainstream craft beers and cocktails to choose from plus a choice of food trucks in the central courtyard.
When’s it open?
Between the Bridges officially opens for the summer on Thursday 17 April. On the weekend before the opening (Thu 10 April - Sat 12 Apr), Between the Bridges hosts this year's Brew//LDN beer festival, one of Britain's biggest craft beer festivals.
