ART FOR FREE

Keen to get cultural but on a tight budget? We've put together a guide to where to see art for free in London, featuring free-entry museums and galleries spanning historic and modern artworks, as well as special collections. It even includes a painting so big that the building which houses it was designed around it.

ALL ABOARD FOR FREE VINTAGE BUS RIDES THIS JUNE

London Bus Museum's semi-regular heritage day returns on Sunday 8 June 2025, when buses dating from the 1950s-70s ply the 418 route between Epsom and Kingston.Simply show up at a bus stop along the contemporary 418 route between 10am and 5pm, and soon enough an RT-Type or original Routemaster will scoop you up. Some services will even have a conductor on board, handing out facsimile tickets. (Just be aware that if you board a modern TfL service on the route that day, you'll need to tap in and pay a fare.)
