Tate Modern 2.0
Art - Tate Modern 2.0 After a £260m revamp, art powerhouse Tate Modern will open on 17 June with a new look and 60% more gallery space, including a 10-storey extension. There will be new seminar rooms and a media lab, plus a restaurant on Level 10 and a public terrace on Level 11. Designed by Herzog & de Meuron, Tate Modern 2.0 is being hailed as the UK’s most important new cultural venue for decades – with the existing boiler house and Turbine Hall set to be supplemented by the vast Switch House to the south. Herzog & de Meuron designed the original Tate Modern, which opened in May 2000, and the façade of the new 11-story building will have the 8
same brick as that structure. The project was meant to chime with the London 2012 Olympics; when that didn’t happen, Tate opened performance space The Tanks instead. The June unveiling coincides with a complete rehang of the Tate’s permanent collection, in which performance and interactive art will play a greater role. Tate veteran Frances Morris, who takes over from Chris Dercon as Tate director this year, is likely to institute other bold changes: she has long been known for championing female artists such as Louise Bourgeois. Check the building’s progress via the live image feed from the construction site, updated every 15 minutes: www.tate.org.uk/about/projects/ tate-modern-project/today gogocityguides.com
Art She has long formed half of a formidable power couple with fellow Serpentine Gallery Co-Director Hans-Ulrich Obrist, but well-heeled art world superstar Julia PeytonJones is stepping down from the role in July, after 25 years.

Nuno Mendes
Food - Hot Tables London gained more new restaurants than ever before in 2015, and, judging by the crop of openings this year, there’s no sign of the city’s restaurant scene slowing down. Covent Garden welcomed Frenchie, from the celebrated Parisian chef Grégory Marchand, in February, and is also home to Native, a new restaurant fostering nose-to-tail and roots-to-stem eating, with a big focus on game, rare meats and wild food. Tom Sellers, of Story Restaurant, is preparing to launch a new modern Euro table Restaurant Ours in March in Kensington in a dramatic space featuring soaring ceilings and 3 large trees! Jason Atherton’s muchdelayed Japanese "izakaya" concept Sosharu, is also now reportedly gearing up to open in Clerkenwell’s Turnmill Building in March. Another biggie: Nuno Mendes’ crowdfunded revival of Viajante, his ambitious fine-dining haunt at Bethnal Green’s Town Hall Hotel, which is slated for autumn.
J.W.Anderson Workshops
Fashion - J.W.Anderson Workshops Having scooped the top two prizes at the British Fashion Awards 2015 – both Menswear and Womenswear Designer of the Year – and boldly broadcast his Autumn/ Winter 2016 show on Grindr, contrary Northern Irish star and Loewe creative director Jonathan Anderson is primed for an equally momentous 2016. While he’s had ample offers to open a flagship for his eponymous label, the canny designer doesn’t
want the pressure: instead, in January he launched an offbeat space, J.W.Anderson Workshops, which is inspired by the Bloomsbury Group’s Omega Workshops. Adjacent to the Ace Hotel in Shoreditch, the workshops will serve as a showcase for his collaborations with other kindred spirits: from March, he’ll be highlighting photographer Ian David Baker, known for his images of 1980s gay culture, with limited-edition prints and a capsule collection featuring Baker’s work. j-w-anderson.com

Theatre From 15 April, the British Library commemorates the 400th anniversary of Shakespeare's death. Shakespeare in Ten Acts explores the impact of 10 significant theatrical moments, from Shakespeare’s first production of Hamlet to a digital-age deconstruction for the 21st century.
British artist, this exhibition will reunite all her completed paintings for the first time since their creation, plus 120 intricate preparatory studies, illustrations and portraits providing, a true insight into the artistic processes of this under-appreciated woman artist. Wed 8 June – Sun 18 Sep |
As part of Somerset House’s year dedicated to the 500th anniversary of Thomas More’s influential political work Utopia, this year-long celebration explores the way that counterculture manifests itself in the 21st century. Thomas More was the first to give a name and form to an idea that has captured human imagination throughout history: that by imagining a better world is possible, we are empowered to create it. His playful vision, published in 1516, presents an ideal society living on a fictitious island, described in a traveller’s tale. It is not a blueprint for the future, instead he places importance on the process of dreaming in the now. His work continues to inspire communities and provide a framework for true innovation in our time. Featuring clothes, photography and art, the show aims to trace London’s countercultural movements from 2000 to today, unpicking their intertwined politics and aesthetics. Mon 4 Jul – Mon 29 Aug |

Molly Goddard
West London native, fashion designer Goddard presented her first collection during fashion week in September 2014. The collection was shown at an off-schedule presentation in a Mayfair church hall, with the show taking the form of a teenager’s party, with a Portuguese crooner singing karaoke hits in the background. The collection was picked up by Dover Street Market, who also commissioned the designer to create in-store installations to reflect her collection. Molly specialises in traditional craft techniques such as handpleating, smocking and crocheting. Her designs take inspiration from party dresses and Sunday best. The techniques that she utilises serve to create clothes that are both delicate and fragile, but the character she designs for conflicts with the beauty of her technique, and brings a clumsy and charming awkwardness to her silhouettes and fabric combinations. www.mollygoddard.com

Old Spitalfields Market
Every Thursday, Old Spitalfields Market is transformed into a cave of hidden treasures. Dealers from across the country arrive bearing exciting goods. What makes this antiques market amazing is that it has something for everyone: a serious collector, or someone that dabbles in antiques as a hobby. www.oldspitalfieldsmarket.com
The young London-based designer launched her fashion label Shrimps in 2013. At the heart of the brand is faux fur and outerwear, however the collections also now include accessories and RTW. Weiland takes her inspiration from the witticisms of modern art and a playful engagement with pattern and texture.

Condoms
Booking tickets
Condoms are sold in chemists and supermarkets, and there are vending machines in the toilets of train stations, clubs and bars.
A couple of the major ticket agencies that venues rely on are www.ticketweb.co.uk and www. ticketmaster.co.uk. Increasingly concerts and clubs are using e-ticketed barcodes which are then printed and scanned at the door, although there is usually a way to circumvent this. If events are sold out, great resources are www.gumtree.com and www.seatwave. com, offering fan-to-fan ticket exchange.
Cost of living
Cell Phones see mobile phones
Newspaper 40p (tabloids, The Sun etc.) to £1.80 for reputable broadsheets (Guardian, Independent, Times). Cigarettes: a packet of 20 typically costs around £9, with a similar figure for a 25g packet of rolling tobacco. Big Mac £2.89, an espresso (Starbucks) £1.60, cinema ticket £10 to £17 in the West End and multiplexes.
Clubbing
Credit Cards
Most venues are open until 3am on Fri/Sat and larger ones from Thu through to Sun. Since drinks can be expensive (pub averages are around £4–£5 for a pint, and £4–£6 for spirits and mixers, but can rise steeply particularly in central clubs), most Londoners drink at home or in a local bar before heading out around midnight. Superclubs like Fabric don’t get started until 2 or 3am, so pace yourself and expect to dance until noon the next day (some rise at 6am and then go out!). Bags are often searched on entrance to live music clubbing events, with no drinks, drugs (and even water) allowed into venues. Entrance ranges from a couple of pounds (mid-week in smaller venues) up to £25 for star DJs. Many neighbourhood venues, though, are free or reduced before 11pm– midnight.
Visa and Mastercard are widely accepted; American Express and Diners Club cards are less so. If your card is lost or stolen, call: American Express (012 7369 6933), Diners Club (0845 862 2935), Visa (0800 891 725).Mastercard (0800 964 767).
Dentists For urgent care, you can visit the Dental Emergency Care Service, Guy’s Hospital, St Thomas St, Southwark, SE1. Open Mon–Fri 9am–5pm. Queues start forming at 8am, so get there by 10am to be sure of being seen. For less urgent care, you can also find a dentist on www.nhs.uk/Service-Search/Dentists/ LocationSearch/3
Dining If Londoners are not eating ‘al desko’ – the popular phrase
satirising office worker’s sandwich lunches in front of their computer – most tend to grab up to an hour between noon and 3pm. Dinner is usually from around 7.30–10.30pm (last orders in restaurants), but it’s common to snack while drinking and then grab a takeaway on the way home from the pub or go for a late-night curry.
Doctors As well as British citizens, residents (e.g. overseas students) and people with a UK work permit can all visit a General Practitioner free of charge. Anybody else can still visit a GP but will have to pay. You can find your nearest surgery at www.nhs.uk or simply walk in to one of the new GP-led health centres. Open from 8am to 8pm, every day of the year, they don’t require an appointment. Also useful is NHS Direct – a confidential 24-hour telephone helpline offering medical advice from nurses on 111. The national emergency number – for police, fire or ambulance services – is 999.
Drinking and Drugs You must be 18 to buy cigarettes or to buy or be served alcohol, and it’s very common to be asked for photo ID (passport, driver’s licence) if you don’t look clearly over 25. As in most major capitals, illicit drugs are fairly common, and legal highs like poppers are omnipresent in edgier areas like Camden and sex shops in Soho.

Transport
Getting To & From London AIRPORTS Heathrow Located 32 km to the west of central London and one of the world’s busiest airports, with over 73,000,000 passengers in 2014. There are 5 terminals. www.heathrowairport.com
— The fastest way into central London, the Heathrow Express will take you from Heathrow to London Paddington in just 15 minutes. The first train departs around 5am from Terminals 1, 2 & 3, with trains running every 15 minutes until 11.48pm. A transfer service operates from terminals 4 & 5. The schedule is practically the same for the return trip. Single tickets cost £21 if purchased online or from the ticket machine or office at Heathrow Airport, and £26 if purchased onboard. An added bonus: Heathrow Express provides free on-board wifi. www.heathrowexpress.com
— Taking the Underground is always an option. The trip will take a bit longer (around 50 minutes), but is considerably cheaper. Take Piccadilly Line from Heathrow into London, where you can connect to the rest of the London Tube network. Trains run every few minutes, from around 5am to 11.45pm. A single ticket costs £5.70, but it’s worth buying an Oyster card if you plan to use the Tube frequently (see page 31 for more info).www.tfl.gov.uk
Another option is the National Express bus service from Heathrow to Victoria Coach Station. Buses leave every 30 minutes, from 3 different stops (the Central Bus Station, and in front of both Terminal 4 and Terminal 5) and the journey takes between 40 minutes and 1 hour 30 minutes, depending on the route (and traffic). Some services stop en route in Hammersmith or Earl’s Court. Services from Heathrow commence around 5.30am and run until 9.30pm. Coaches from Victoria depart from around 7.15am until midnight. Tickets start at £15, one-way. Book at least 30 days in advance.www.nationalexpress.com — For those arriving or departing after midnight, the N9 night bus runs every 20 min to central London (Trafalgar Square) between midnight and 5.30am. Journey time is approximately 65 min. Standard bus fares apply, or an Oyster card will work here as well. www.tfl.gov.uk — A taxi between Heathrow and central London takes about an hour and should cost between £43 and £75, depending, of course, on time of day and exact destination. Be sure to ask your driver how much the fare will be in advance. In Black Cabs, there is an extra charge of £2 for journeys that start from Heathrow Airport ranks and finish within Greater London.
50 km south of central London. Two terminals (North & South). www.gatwickairport.com
— Gatwick Express provides the quickest route into central London. The trip takes about 30 min, with trains leaving every 15 min from South Terminal to Victoria Station. Service runs from around 5am to midnight, in both directions. Single tickets cost £17.70 online (£15.50 onboard). www.gatwickexpress.com
— With five London destinations – to London Bridge, City Thameslink, Blackfriars, Farringdon and St Pancras International stations – the Thameslink offers a bit more flexibility at a reduced price. Trains run approx. every 10 min, and you can expect a 30 min (London Bridge) to 48 min (St Pancras) journey into central London. Tickets cost between £10 and £19 and can be bought online. The train station is located in the South Terminal building with a short, free train transit to the North Terminal. www.thameslinkrailway.com
Gatwick
— The National Express bus service runs approximately every hour between Gatwick and Victoria Coach Station. Journey time varies according to route and, of course, traffic, but most are about 1 hour 50 min. Some services stop at Hooley, Wallington, Mitcham Junction, Mitcham London Rd, Streatham, Stockwell and Pimlico. Tickets cost £10.
The UK’s second biggest airport after Heathrow, Gatwick is a bit farther from the city, sitting about
— A budget option, Easybus runs from both North and South

Bethnal Green Brick Lane Dalston Hackney Shoreditch Spitalfields Whitechapel Getting around
Get out at Liverpool St for a shopping tour of Spitalfields and, via Dray Walk, Brick Lane. The vintage and homewares on Cheshire St are a short stroll north along here, while happening Redchurch St takes you on into Shoreditch proper. For Shoreditch’s bars, shops and galleries, get out at Old St tube and slowly wend your way east via Hoxton Square, stopping for refreshments on Columbia Rd. From there take a 55 or 26 bus to Broadway Market and then continue northwards to Dalston for a full-night’s entertainment.
Spitalfields’ thriving covered market, heritage delis and smart new restaurants trace the edge of the City, but by buzzing Dray Walk (home to the popular Rough Trade East) endless bars, curry houses and vintage emporiums, backdropped by the iconic Old Truman Brewery, mark a shift into the grittier Brick Lane. Nearby Whitechapel is resurgent after a revamp of the famous gallery, while to the north Shoreditch continues to tempt the creatives down from their Hackney lofts with its lively selection of bars & clubs. Dalston is best seen at night and is where you will inevitably find yourself, in one of its edgy but ultra-hip nightspots.
