London is the place to be for world-class music gigs this summer 2024. Make the most of your time in the Capital and stay with us at Eccleston Square Hotel– we’re a short walk from the tube and overground services at Victoria Station – so you can be anywhere in London in no time. Here’s our pick of some of the best of London’s live music scene this summer and some tips on how best to travel;
Summer nights call for walks to London’s Hyde Park for all the atmosphere of a sunny time festival, without the grit of camping. Do not miss the magic this year – tickets are still available for some of the best names in live music, including the grammy-winning singer and songwriter Stevie Nicks on the 12th July, pop princess Kylie Minogue on 13th July, American rock band Kings of Leon, Italian tenor Andrea Bocelli, and pop legends Robbie Williams and Shania Twain who’ll be performing with the Corrs and Natalie Imbruglia.
South Kensington is the nearest tube station for The Royal Albert Hall and it’s just two stops away from London Victoria. Do not miss the true legend that is Gladys Knight with The Fairwell Tour, or Sir George Ivan Morrison OBE – better known as Van Morrison. Choose from 90 BBC Proms performances, St Vincent and Alexander O’Neal with his Time to Say Goodbye Tour. Cyndi Lauper is performing her first solo show in 8 years, plus you can catch the ever brilliant Beverley Knight and three times GRAMMY and seven times BRIT Award-winning global pop powerhouse Dua Lipa.
To connect to London’s Wembley Stadium, take a beautiful walk via the houses of Parliament, or hop one stop on the Victoria Line, and join the Jubilee Line for a smooth sail north to Wembley Park. Great work if you managed to secure tickets for Taylor Swift’s long-awaited The Eras Tour at Wembley, it is said the London tour sold out within 14 minutes of the tickets going on sale! Be sure to book your rooms now, before they sell out too. Other greats playing at this iconic stadium this summer include the living legend that is Bruce Springsteen on his 2024 World Tour (dates in July), world famous hard rock band AC/DC with their PWR UP Tour, and Punk icons Green Day with The Saviours Tour (dates in June).
To reach London’s O2 Arena, take your favoured route to the Jubilee Line and travel East to North Greenwich. More than just an iconic music venue, here you can do so much more including bowling, indoor skydiving, take an exhilarating climb atop the world-famous roof, visit the Selfie Factory or enjoy 70% off RRP on many designer brands at Outlet Shopping at the O2. Look out for Grammy award-winning superstar Doja Cat with “The Scarlet Tour”, Girls Aloud, Justin Timberlake with his Forget Tomorrow World Tour, The Killers with Travis, Texas, and The Show Live on Tour with Niall Horan.
Join the Victoria Line at Victoria’s underground station and travel easy up to Finsbury Park to see Hozier or Nicki Minaj and Doja Cat headlining at Wireless Festival. Just two stops on from Finsbury Park, you’ll find Tottenham Hale, for London’s Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Promising a night to remember is PINK with her Summer Carnival Tour, Pearl Jam with their Dark Matter Tour and Travis Scott with The UTOPIA - Circus Maximus Tour
