Time Out says

Sashay your way to Somerset House’s stunning Georgian courtyard for its annual summer extravaganza, which as always has an emphasis on queer-led, music-pumping and dance-filled events. 

Stop by on weekdays for free, non-naff family workshops like bookmaking, loom making and embroidery, accompanied by food and drink pop-ups and the fine refreashing spray of the courtyard fountains. On weekends is when the action ramps up with live events and performances from inclusivity-centered creatives and grassroot communities. This year look out for a bike ride from Black Unity, the Queer Family Picnic, Black Girl Fest, the Vogue Rites voguing ball and a live musical love letter to London from Femi Koleoso (Ezra Collective, Gorillaz).
