Open Garden Squares Weekend (June 9-10)

Amongst our sprawling urban metropolis, hundreds of lush green oases lie hidden from view, undiscovered by the majority of the capital’s residents. For one weekend a year, the Open Garden Squares Weekend, these secret spaces open their gates and invite the public to pay a visit, with one ticket allowing unlimited access for the weekend.

Time and locations vary: See website for details. Cost: £9–12 (adults), free (children). Price includes guidebook per two tickets. All ages. Tel: 020 7839 3969; www.opensquares.org
