Welcome to the Thames Festival.

2012 promises to be an unforgettable year for London!
The Thames Festival will be on 8 & 9 September.

This is the closing weekend of the London 2012 Games, and the Thames Festival will be the Mayor’s, and the city’s, final celebration of an amazing year for London. It’s going to be incredible - and unmissable - so put the date in your diary now!

Do sign up to our mailing list and Facebook/Twitter pages in order to receive regular Festival updates throughout the year.

We had lots of lovely feedback sent in from members of the public after the 2011 events - this was our favourite: Thank you Thames Festival. I work in London every day and the city becomes monotonous. Today, you've made me fall in love with it again!

Use the links on the left to find out information about the festival, as well as our extensive year-round education and outreach programmes, including our flagship arts education project Rivers of the World, and to use our online River Thames resource, Love River.
