What's On

With a history as deep and sordid as ours, entertainment doesn’t hold back. On any given day or night, you can find a happening to blow you away. Go big in the Tate’s Turbine Hall or find a pop-up experiment under an arch.

Food & Drink

A vibrant creative and cultural neighbourhood, home to the world's most visited art gallery, Tate Modern, one of London's oldest food markets, Borough Market, and instantly recognisable Shakespeare's Globe and Southwark Cathedral.

See & Do

Meet miscellaneous Bankside. There's too much to see and do and smell and hear and bump into. A rare urban acre where distraction is the art of attraction. Lose yourself to find yourself.

Stay

Staying in Bankside is now bliss. Hoxton Southwark joins Hilton Bankside, Citizen M & Sea Containers at the top table, while you can crash on a budget in snug spaces, right in the thick of the action.

Bankside Guides

Banksiders are generous folk. They don’t mind sharing their tips with you…where to sup coffee in the sun, grab a gaze of the Shard or let the kids go bananas in a secret playground. Do as the locals do.
