London's most creative urban neighbourhood, Shoreditch, is known for it’s young designers, craft beer, and for its unprecedented transformation from neglected ex-industrial land to vibrant creative hub.

Sculpture in the City | Until 2018
Returning again to fill the Square Mile with public art is Sculpture in the City. This influx of artworks among the financial district's high rise buildings draws in visitors, and utilises one of the most recongised cityscapes as canvas.

The London Photo Show | 18-22 October
Returning after its success in 2016, this exhibition was "born out of the knowledge that there are too many good photographers out there with great images not being shown to the world". Get yourself down to this short but sweet showcase to see work with subjects ranging from architecture to lifestyle.
