The London Stadium is a beautiful stadium created for the Summer Olympics in 2012.

You can use the ticket link above to buy tickets for the events.

We will not be there personally as we are not so big Guns N’ Roses fans. We would much rather be there at one of the Adele concerts in London later in the summer, or maybe on of the Coldplay or U2 concerts. There are lots of events to choose from, so if you are a music lover then London is the number one city to reside in this summer!

In addition to their concerts in London Guns N Roses will also perform in Paris, in Prague, in Vienna, in Lisbon, in Madrid and lots of other cities all across Europe!

Adele concerts in London summer of 2017

Who is the woman that will fill the Wembley Stadium four nights in a row the summer of 2017? It is Adele! She will come to perform four times at the Wembley stadium in London this summer!

It is simply amazing to see and read about the popularity of Adele. In 2017 she will do loads of concerts in Australia and in New Zealand, but what about Europe? She will come, but only to one city. Guess what? The lucky city is London and here she will perform four times. It is no wonder why the tickets are expensive, because everyone from all across Europe wants to be there at these events, and for this reason tickets are sold away at once. And again, this is the reason why lots of people end up buying tickets for the Adele concerts in London second-hand, making them even more expensive. If you want to get your hands on some tickets for one or more of the Adele concerts in London during the summer of 2017, use the ticket link beneath!

Adele has created some fantastic hits and hopefully she will feature for example Hello’, ‘I Miss You’, ‘Love in the Dark’, ‘Someone like you’, ‘Rolling in the deep’ and ‘Make you feel my love’ during her concerts in London. Adele is one of the most watched artists ever on YouTube, and she is a phenomena in the present day in music business. No wonder why she has so many fans worldwide?

Adele is different from Lady GaGa

Many critics also praise Adele. She is not only a phenomena when it comes to being an artist. She also has a fantastic voice and her voice alone even without watching the artist, would be an experience for a life time. That is one more reason for you to be there as Adele comes to London during the summer of 2017.

U2 concert in London at July 8th in 2017

U2 will have about 10 concerts in Europe in 2017. The first concert in Europe during the Joshue Tree tour will be in London on July 8th at the Twickenham Stadium.

You might consider Twickenham Stadium to be a perfect venue for cricket and rugby, but what about concerts? The reality is that Twickenham Stadium is a concert venue that is used seldom for such purposes. But, whenever it is used it means that one can expect at least 80,000 people to come and it will become one fantastic concert event. And yes, that is exactly what we can expect when U2 will come to London to perform on July 8th.

[stextbox id=”alert”]An extra concert with U2 in London at Twickenham Stadium has been announced on July 9th! Enjoy![/stextbox]

This is as we mentioned the first concert in Europe. Their first concert at all during the tour will be in Vancouver on May 12th, and then two months later it is time for Europe to listen to U2 as well. But, you should not expect them to come with new songs and new hits. Instead U2 will go back in time, in fact they will go 30 years back in time. The Joshua Tree tour is not about a guy named Joshua Tree alive now. It is instead the name of their album that was released 30 years ago, and now on this tour they will bring forth all those old songs again and bring them to live again. If you do not have that album and haven’t listened to it yet, then you better hurry up and buy it right away. You can for example order it from the different Amazon stores around the world if that would suit you well. If you live in a European country without an Amazon Store, then you can read more about how to get the products delivered to your home country in this article.

London Dungeon

London Dungeon takes you to a long journey through London’s history, giving the possibility to meet some of London’s most infamous murderers and felons, such as Jack the Ripper and Sweeney Tod. London Dungeon is a tourist attraction which recreates humorously many of the well known horrific events related to the English history.

Winter wouldn’t be complete without the Christmas markets so in our 4th point we will give you some tips which markets are worth visiting in London on a winter day. Usually the markets appears on the streets of the city in the end of November and the beginning of December. At the markets you can get the best and most unique Christmas decorations but the market is also a good place to pick your Christmas presents. Apart from the great Christmas gift ideas the markets are packed with the best festive dishes and drinks such as the unmissable mulled wine.

Pubs & bars

On a holiday in London you must visit some of the old traditional pubs of the city. London and the whole UK is famous for their pubs so if you’re looking for the best pubs and bars in London then don’t stop reading because we will introduce you shortly three of the most popular ones in the city: Cocktail Trading Company, is a cozy and playful place with super cocktails for the best price, Coach & Horses is a really popular old-school pub, located in Soho in downtown London and Ape & Bird, which is located also in the heart of London in an area packed full with tourists, the bar is highly recommended for everyone who fancy a classy place with quality drinks.

Restaurants

Winter is in a way one of the best seasons of the year to visit London, because when the weather gets cold and the temperature drops the number of the tourists drops as well, which means more space for you everywhere in the city. As London is one of the biggest and busiest city of the world it is never really calm or quite but it is definitely less crowded during winter. So winter is not only perfect when you want to check the museums out but also when you want to eat out in a nice restaurant in London. Luckily the city has lot of good restaurants so the only thing you have to do is to choose a good place to eat at.

London Aquarium

London Aquarium is definitely one of the best places to go with children, so this program is especially recommend for families who don’t know what to do on a cold winter day in London. London Aquarium, which is also the largest one in the country, is located in central London near to the London Eye.

Discover the rain forests of the world, the different type of fish, sharks, sea turtles and all the other living creatures of the oceans. In the aquarium you also have the chance to feed and touch animals such as the most feared animal of the oceans, sharks and there are other plenty of interactive programs in which you can get to know more about the marine life of the sea. London Aquarium is open from Monday to Friday from 10.00 to 19.00 and on Saturday and Sunday from 9.00 to 18.00.

Ice rinks

Ice rinks and ice skating are the best part of the festive season and it definitely became a massive part of the winter as well. So we can agree on that that the Christmas period wouldn’t be complete with the ice rinks and the Christmas markets. In London there are many places you can go for a skate ride but probably the two best ones in the city are the one at the Winter Wonderland and the one front of the Natural History Museum. Usually the ice rinks appears on the streets of the city simultaneously with the Christmas markets around the end of November until the end of December- beginning of January. The ice rinks are definitely great fun for everyone, so have fun.

Theater

Our last point will be about the theaters in London so let’s get prepared. During winter there are several Christmas related pieces  in the theaters which are really good for getting in the festive mood. If you are yet not in the festive mood after watching one of the shows such as The Snowman or the Slava’s Snow Show you will instantly feel the spirit of Christmas. There are many good theaters and plays shown in the city so you just have to choose the one that best fits your taste.
