Prefer the chillout vibes of a jazz bar? Spend a night (or two) visiting London’s exciting ensemble of jazz clubs. Top of the list is the renowned Ronnie Scott’s Jazz Club—an iconic nightlife institution that has entertained London for over six decades. The club played host to some of the biggest names in Jazz, like Miles Davis and Ella Fitzgerald. Today, it is an intimate space where you may discover the next big jazz sensation. 


Then hop over to The Jazz Cafe London to soak up the fusion of jazz, and music. Live musicians here are known to fuse Jazz with modern music genres to create a unique blend of music.

London’s many attractions are sure to impress during the day, but the city’s numerous destinations are truly spectacular at night. To enjoy a gorgeous nighttime view of the city, go on a London by Night Open Top Bus Tour

Board the bus as dusk falls on a one-hour-45-minute ride through famous London landmarks such as the Trafalgar Square, Piccadilly Circus, Buckingham Palace, and a host of other attractions as they spring to luminous life against the night sky. 

 

Top Night Activities to Do in London

 

Outdoor cinemas and rooftop screenings are a unique London experience for any movie buff. From Hollywood classics to the latest award winners and blockbusters, you can catch them all at Luna Cinema—a creative pop-up moviehouse which screens popular films at venues like Westminster Abbey and Danson House. 

Prefer a cinematic experience on water? Watch them under the stars at Openaire Cinema, where you journey on a boat along the waters of Little Venice before watching blockbusters on a big waterside screen from your boat, with headphones, of course. 

Or visit the Rooftop Film Club and catch the sunset before settling down on comfortable sun chairs with drinks and snacks in your hand, while savouring handpicked favourites and newly released gems.
