The London Sports Festival was launched in May in Guildhall Yard with a sample of a diverse range of activities including archery to pickleball, bucket ball, table tennis, and dance and fitness classes.
An initiative of the Central London Alliance, the festival will run until October and bring sport to some of London’s most iconic locations, as well as hidden streets and leafy backwaters. For example, padel will be played near the Tower of London, pickleball in St James’ Park and table tennis in Paternoster Square – as well as continued use of Guildhall Yard.
Relationships
The aim is to create spaces where workers, residents and visitors can enjoy the capital and build lasting relationships through sport throughout the summer and beyond. The festival offers a diverse range of sports ensuring there is something for everyone to enjoy. There will also be a number of attempts on Guiness World Records – watch this space.
