Ready for your next adventure? Here are the 10 top indoor exhibitions, experiences and activities with air conditioning to escape the heatwave in London.
Are you a fan of video games, films and concerts? Here are 5 of the biggest film and video game concerts coming to the UK in 2026/27. Think of Twilight, Sonic, Disney and more.
Celebrating 35 years of one the most iconic video game franchise: Sonic the Hedgehog, a new immersive concert experience brings together the video game’s most iconic moments.
Senbla and SEGA announced a large scale live concert experience starting in the U.S. on the 26th September 2026 followed by its European premiere on the 30th September 2026 at Eventim Apollo, London. Some UK dates for 2027 have already been announced.
Sonic Live in Concert will include an incredible array of music from the very first game, fan favourite tracks from the Genesis era to today.
Rock musicians, electronics and vocalist will bring the video game’s most iconic moments into life while synchronised HD footage will be playing the best boss battles, legendary moments and iconic levels.
Easter eggs will also be woven into the production to add an extra layer of discovery and excitement for fans.
The concert also highlights the creative legacy of Jun Senoue and Tomoya Ohtani whose unforgettable works have helped define Sonic across generations throughout the decades.
Sonic the Hedgehog debuted in 1991 and quickly became a global entertainment icon spanning across video games, film, television, and consumer products. Sonic Live in Concert is part of the celebration of the 35th anniversary of the iconic franchise and everyone’s favourite blue hedgehog.
Following a highly successful UK tour last year and Spring 2026, Jim Henson’s Labyrinth: In Concert is back for an exclusive one-off show just before Halloween.
The cult classic Labyrinth starring David Bowie and Jennifer Connelly was released in 1986 featuring timeless songs, such as Magic Dance, Underground and As the World Falls Down.
Let yourself transported back to the Goblin City and enjoy an unforgettable live performance enchanted with a massive HD cinema screen playing the most iconic moments from the film in perfect synchronisation with David Bowie’s original, isolated vocals.
From the producers of Avatar: The Last Airbender in Concert, The Legend of Korra in Concertis a new live-to-picture orchestral experience that brings the beloved animated series to life.
The Legend of Korra was premiered on Nickelodeon in 2012 and this concert gives the perfect opportunity for fans to celebrate the 15th anniversary of the series.
The story sets decades after the Avatar: The Last Airbender and Aang’s era. Korra is a rebellions teenager who is the next reincarnation of Aang. They share the same soul and the exact same spiritual connection, but both came from a completely different environment and have different personalities.
“The music of The Legend of Korra explores a very different emotional and musical landscape than Avatar: The Last Airbender, blending orchestral, jazz, and electronic influences to reflect Korra’s more modern world. Hearing that score performed live brings a new level of energy to the music and allows audiences to experience the story in a completely different way.” – says Emmy Award winning composer, Jeremy Zuckerman.
Experience The Twilight Saga: New Moon in its full length on a full-size cinema screen while a 12-piece ensemble of rock and orchestral musicians perform all the quiet, fragile and intense, emotional moments live alongside the film.
The Twilight Saga: New Moon in Concert is a unique live-to-film experience where the live music performance is perfectly in sync of every frame of the film.
Laugh, cry, cheer and sing with fellow fans at this truly unforgettable 2hrs 30 minutes performance (includes 20 minutes intermission).
“The response to Twilight in Concert was immediate and passionate, and made it clear that fans wanted more. The Twilight Saga: New Moon takes everything to another level. It’s more emotional, more intense, and when you experience Bella’s story with live music, those moments hit in a completely different way.” – says Floris Douwes, Producer and Managing Director at GEA Live.
Composed by Academy Award winner Alexandre Desplat, the music of The Twilight Saga: New Moon is a rich and intense score. Tracks include fan-favourites, such as “New Moon (The Meadow)”, “Bella Dreams” and “Werewolves”.

Celebrating the 50th anniversary of Aardman, Young V&A in Bethnal Green opened an interactive exhibition that not just lets you peek behind the scenes of stop motion animation, but shows the whole process from start to finish and teaches you how to create your own animation film at home.

Inside Aardman: Wallace & Gromit and Friends exhibition is a family-friendly exhibition designed to spark creativity and showcase all the techniques one needs to create their own animation film with lovable characters to inspire the next generation of storytellers, model-makers and animators.
Photo: Urban Adventurer
The exhibition is full of iconic and inspiring items, including storyboards and early character sketches of well-loved characters like Gromit and Morph.
In these early sketches of Wallace and Gromit, Wallace was a postman wearing moustache and Gromit could talk. However, Nick Park realised that Gromit was actually more expressive as a silent character.
Photo: Urban Adventurer
Originally, Wallace had an oval face but that changed when Peter Sallis recorded his lines. They realised that when Peter said ‘Cheeeeeese’, his mouth stretched out, so the animators gave Wallace a big cheesy grin.
Did you know that some of the most famous Aardman characters come in duos? That’s because pairing together odd couples leads to all sorts of fun.
Photo: Urban Adventurer
There are over 150 items on display, including never-before-seen set pieces from your favourite films, including the sidecar from Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl, Chicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget and The Pirates! In an Adventure with Scientists!
Photo: Urban Adventurer
The mammoth puppet from Early Man (2018) is the largest and heaviest puppet Aardman have ever made. Hydraulics were built into its legs so that they could support the weight and the puppet was still able to move. That mammoth is also on display at the exhibition.
Stop-Motion Animation – Just How Aardman Do It!
Photo: Urban Adventurer
The exhibition is not just for the eyes, but also for the hands.
Photo: Urban Adventurer
There are touchable characters on display, interactive corners and workshops where anyone can learn how to draw characters, sketch storyboards, set the right lighting and move the characters in front of the camera.
Photo: Urban Adventurer
If you’re interested in stop-motion animation – or any particular part of the process – you can learn everything. Just how Aardman do it!
Aardman Studios started with some school friends experimenting with stop motion, literally, on the kitchen table.
Photo: Urban Adventurer
Even though Aardman is one of the most successful animation studios in the world, their films and characters still have that handcrafted feel. You can literally see fingerprints on the characters as the animators touched them and move them frame by frame. And that exactly that makes Aardman animation films unique and completely different from other stop motion animation films.
Photo: Urban Adventurer
Aardman films bring the clay into life and techniques can be easily learn and created at home with minimal resources.
Photo: Urban Adventurer
The exhibition also teaches that sometimes ordinary scenery, such as the street you grew up, can became the ideal scene for a film.
Nick Park, the creator of Wallace and Gromit was born in Preston, Lancashire and he took inspiration from the streets nearby and the community he grew up in.
You Can Go Back As Many Times As You Wish With Your Ticket

Similarly to Pandora, AVORA is also a beautiful but fragile world that deserves to be preserved and protected. A unique planet where all living creatures are connected to each other, creating one neural network allowing one another to share memories, and wisdom by connecting with the souls of ancestors.
Just like Pandora and AVORA, Earth also needs protection.
That’s why they have woven the message into the storyline in a very subtle and beautiful way.
Plus, AVORA has partnered with Ecologi, a UK environmental organisation, and they plant a tree with every ticket sold.
To help reduce carbon footprint, AVORA experience is also sustainably led.

Here are some of the highlights of the experience:
Toy Story

Shrink into the size of a toy and roam around Andy’s room. But be careful! Andy should never discover you’re actually alive.
Photo: Urban Adventurer
Every detail is meticulously crafted to look exactly like in the film. There are endless photo opportunities here. You will meet Woody and Buzz and take photos inside a Buzz Lightyear toy packaging.
Photo: Urban Adventurer

Cars
Photo: Urban Adventurer
Feel like a champion of the Piston Cup Championship and take a winner photo with Lightning McQueen. You can also pose with the good old rusty Mater who is always in a good mood and loves the simple joys in life.
Monsters Inc.
Photo: Urban Adventurer
Laughter produces 100 times more energy than screams. Mike and Sully hadn’t known that before they met Boo, the little human girl who accidentally wandered through a magical door from the real world to the world of monsters.
In this room, you will meet Mike and Sully from the famous comedy adventure animation film from 2001.
Step into the real Monsters Inc. scare floor, take selfies with your favourite characters and peek behind a door to a human child’s room.
Hear the screams harvested in the iconic yellow Monsters Inc. tanks and admire the doors being delivered by the door delivery machine above your head.
Inside Out
Photo: Urban Adventurer
Step inside Riley’s head and watch her good, bad and mixed memories glow beautifully in the dark.

Meet Joy, Anxiety and Sandness behind the control panel and notice Anger fuming in front of the shelves.
Coco

Similarly to Toy Story, the exhibition features not one, but two Coco-themed rooms!
The first one is featuring Grandma Coco and Miguel in front of the family altar with all the familiar faces from the film, including Grandma Coco’s beloved father, Héctor.
Photo: Urban Adventurer
The second room is featuring Héctor and Dante, the stray dog, and the song “Remember Me” is playing while millions of orange Marigolds are flowing under your feet, just like in the film.
Mundo Pixar Experience Shop

The exhibition has a large shop packed with all the Pixar merch you ever dreamed of. The walls are decorated with kids’ drawings, and there is even an Edna statue from the 2004 Incredibles movie (beware, she is judging your every move!).
Photo: Urban Adventurer
There are tons of plushies and water bottles but also backpacks (the Wall-E backpack is super cool!), T-shirts, stationery, and – of course – the iconic yellow Pixar ball are all available to purchase.

Bubble Planet Experienceis located right next Mundo Pixar Experience and it’s the ultimate family adventure with 11 themed immersive rooms, including a giant ball pit, a balloon room, VR experience, infinity rooms and – of course – lots of real soap bubbles.
Chargé d’ Affaires ad interim Masaki Ikegami attended to the opening ceremony of the British Museum’s new major exhibition: ‘SAMURAI’ on 29th January.
The exhibition explores the evolution of the legendary Japanese warriors from the 12th century, discussing how they moved away from the battlefield to become an elite social class and how they have influenced pop culture not only in Japan, but also in Europe through film, anime, manga, video games and more.
SAMURAI – The Exhibition
Photo: Urban Adventurer
SAMURAI exhibition opened on the 3rd February at the British Museum and there are over 280 artefacts on display, including full Samurai armours, intricate helmets, swords and archery equipment, kimonos and other items, including erotic books, porcelain dishes and vases.
Photo: Urban Adventurer
The exhibition also showcases how Samurai appears in pop culture today. There is a life-size Darth Vader suit borrowed from the Lucas Museum of Narrative in LA, floor-to-ceiling videos of silhouetted soldiers in battle and a large display of Samurai video games, including the widely popular Assassin’s Creed Shadows.
Photo: Urban Adventurer
Kylo Ren’s (played by Adam Driver) iconic helmet in Star Wars sequel trilogy is also on display. Director J.J. Abrams wanted to give Ren’s costume visual resonances of Darth Vader. The helmet was designed with jagged red lines evoking the traditional repair technique of ‘kintsugi’.
Photo: Urban Adventurer
What is kintsugi?
Rather than hiding the damage, this technique highlights the fractures on the broken item, embracing its imperfections as parts of the object’s beauty, giving the object a whole new life.
About Samurai
Photo: Urban Adventurer
How do you imagine a Samurai? A fierce male warrior wearing armour, wielding a sword and motivated by unshakable loyalty and devotion to their lord?
Samurai – as we imagine them today – have been heavily shaped by films, anime, manga and video games.
Photo: Urban Adventurer
In reality, Samurai were not just warriors, they were also artists skilled in calligraphy, painting and literature. During peacetime when they didn’t have to fight on battlefield, many of the Samurai held important roles within the government or even acquired political powers.
Photo: Urban Adventurer
The exhibition is featuring a traditional business suit Samurai would wear in peace time.
Many Samurai monetised their hobbies and was selling their artworks for living.
Where does the Word ‘Samurai’ Come From?
Photo: Urban Adventurer
The word, ‘Samurai’ comes from the Japanese verb saburau meaning ‘to serve’.
Historically, terms musha, bushi and mononofu were used to describe the members of the warrior ruling class, but ‘Samurai’ is more commonly used in the Western countries.
Were There Female Samurai?
Photo: Urban Adventurer
Yes! The Samurai class included lot of female warriors who also held great power. One of them was Hōjō Masako (1157 – 1225), who married the first shogun, Minamoto Yoritomo (1147 – 1199) and acted as regent multiple times.
Photo: Urban Adventurer
An original painting of Minamoto Yoritomo is also part of the exhibition. The painting is featuring the shogun in a sitting position, wearing black robe and a high bun hairstyle. The painting was created by Fujiwara no Takanobu in the 12th or 13th century.
Women also had the important role of raising children and running the household, and sometimes they even commanded battalions at important battles.
What Training Did Samurai Do?

Samurai had to be able to use various weapons. The level of training depended on the rank and location, but archery was an essential skill. They also needed to be highly trained in martial art.
Samurai were expected to learn painting, calligraphy and flower arranging and needed to be well versed in poetry. As alliances were essential for a Samurai, these skills were cultural codes and how they mastered them sometimes was a matter of life or death.
Do Samurai Exist Today?

No. Following the collapse of the Tokugawa shogunate, Samurai status was abolished in 1869 and since then there have been no Samurai.
However, Samurai still live with us in popular culture, anime and as heroes in films and as video game characters.
Words associated with Samurai society still exist and widely used in Japan today. For example, an unemployed businessman is called rōnin (rōnin was used to describe unemployed Samurai or Samurai without a master).

SAMURAI exhibition gives a rare insight into the lives of the mysterious Japanese warriors. The exhibition features lots of full Samurai armours, hand-written rolls, swords once belonged to real Samurai and tells the story of the shogunate, how the children of Samurai were trained from a very young age and what led to the complete abolishment of the Samurai class in the 19th century.
If you’re interested in Japanese history and culture or simply love anime and manga and want to learn more about what inspired your favourite series, make sure you don’t miss this truly amazing exhibition at the British Museum.
