What's Happening in April
The days are lasting much longer, the weather has perked up, the streets are filled with smiling faces. April in London couldn’t be more beautiful and happening than it is this year. It’s Easter so find your way through London, fuelled with Easter eggs to eat, as well as an Easter egg trail, and much much more. Here’s what to do this April.
Easter Egg Hunt
Until 27 April, join the ultimate Easter egg hunt which has arrived in Marylebone and discover 9 giant, beautifully decorated hidden eggs. The trail is completely free to enjoy and takes you on a fun-filled journey through iconic stores and Marylebone’s picturesque gardens. Perfect for all ages, the city-wide exhibition invites you to explore Marylebone while uncovering each beautiful egg, created by world-famous artists you may already know and love! From Jag Sihra to Sally Adams (the genius behind the Elmer the Elephant trail), Rebecca Campbell, Simon Emery, and many more, these eggs are true works of art. The Big Egg Hunt is a fantastic cause in support of Asia’s Wildlife Charity, Elephant Family, and in partnership with Clarence Court. That’s not all, as you track down each egg, scan the QR code on your app to unlock special prizes and offers. Once all the eggs have been found and scanned, you’ll be in with a chance to win a fantastic family day out in Marylebone. Discover what's up for grabs here.

Wallace Collection
Grayson Perry: Delusions of Grandeur presents over 40 new works by Sir Grayson Perry (1960). In the largest contemporary exhibition ever held at the Wallace Collection, visitors encounter ceramics, tapestries, and works on paper, displayed alongside masterpieces from the collection that helped shape Perry’s vision for this landmark show. As part of this exploration, Delusions of Grandeur focuses on ‘outsider art,’ featuring works by Aloïse Corbaz and Madge Gill. Sparked by the discovery that Madge Gill (1882-1961) exhibited at the Wallace Collection in 1942, the life and work of these outsider artists unlock Perry’s own response, drawing upon his childhood experiences. Marking the artist’s 65th birthday, Delusions of Grandeur offers an elaborate commentary on the nature of making and collecting art.
Until 26 October 2025
Giant
Having transferred to the Harold Pinter after an initial run at the Royal Court in September, GIANT, starring John Lithgow is an excellent yet startling production about Roald Dahl’s antisemitism. At the heart of Nicholas Hytner’s naturalistic, real-time production is American actor Lithgow with a magnetic Dahl: frail and malignant, cruel and kind, righteous and monstrous. A show worth catching.
