As we head into the new year it's nice to have something to look forward too and luckily for us the capital city of London has it all going on with plenty to see and do for everyone, whatever your interests may be. And you have no excuse not to travel to London, because it is easily accessible by train from many places across the UK and there are plenty of hotels if you want to stay over and make a weekend of it.
What's better to kick off the new year than a bit of manly sport. Being a rugby fan myself I can't wait for the six nations to start on 1st February. England will be playing two home matches against Ireland and Wales plus three away matches versus France, Scotland and Italy. But instead of watching it on the tv you could be there in person watching all the action as it happens and have the best seat in the house, by booking Six Nations hospitality.
See a show at the theatre
London is the best place to see theatre in the world, with 230 theatres alone. From The Lion King at the Lyceum Theatre. The Phantom of the Opera at Her Majesty's Theatre. Wicked at the Apollo Victoria. Harry Potter and the Cursed Child at The Palace Theatre. The options are endless so get yourself to the west end for a theatre experience like no other.
