Since the early 1900s, some form of International Women’s Day has existed, giving focus to the women’s rights movement and issues such as gender equality and violence against women. Unfortunately, over 100 years on, it’s still a much-needed spotlight on societal problems that remain today.
Now a huge global affair, each IWD sees the city taken over by talks, debates, parties, gigs and more, all celebrating female talent and solidarity, and highlighting the areas that we still need to improve. So, if you’re ready to dismantle the patriarchy with some like-minded women, here are our top picks of events to mark this year’s edition of IWD in London.
RECOMMENDED: More great things to do in March.
