Hotel Options

Summer By The River Festival is back for 2026! Full details are yet to be announced but it looks like it will again be held across Hay’s Galleria and The Pier. The Scoop is currently closed for refurbishment so won’t feature in this year’s celebrations.

Just steps from London Bridge City Pier, Summer by the River invites visitors to enjoy the summer sunshine with one of London’s favourite summer events. This year, new bar The Clubhouse is the place to be. Think classic sports clubs with a stylish, laid-back European summer feel, with covered seating offering a retreat from the riverside buzz. There will be live sport screenings, movies and NT Live’s production of Hamlet, so there’s sure to be something you won’t want to miss.

Check their website for a full listing of what’s on.

Organisers may cancel events, alter schedules, or change admission requirements without notice. Always check official sites before heading to an event.
