The centenary of the women's right to vote is combined with this year's official Mayor of London's St George's Day celebrations in Trafalgar Square on 21st April 2018. To mark 100 years since the suffragettes proved victorious, a Victorian music hall show plays tributes to popular female artists from London's past as part of the patriotic celebrations on the Saturday closest to 23rd April, the actual feast day of England's dragon-slaying patron saint. The square is decorated in red and white for the festival with stalls selling traditional English food while live music is played by a 25-piece brass band, pop and folk groups. Enjoy free children's art workshops, old fashioned rides, stilt walkers, a special show presented by the Lions Part theatre company as well as Pearly Kings and Queens and a friendly dragon at the centre of it all.
About Trafalgar Square
Lord Nelson, Britain's greatest military hero, and the mighty lions that surround him, pay testament to the position of Trafalgar Square at the heart of the capital, the heart of the nation, and, at one time, the heart of an empire that controlled three fifths of the world.
