Anyone who didn’t manage to get a ticket to see the Olympic or Paralympic Games could still enjoy the party atmosphere around London with special events popping up everywhere. One of particular interest was the Exhibition Road Show, or shall we call it nine days of partying on South Kensington’s Exhibition Road?

Free for all, the event saw over 60,000 visitors rendezvous on Exhibition Road to eat wonderful food, play table games, watch acrobatics, listen to music and dance.

The white elephant has been revived. The a-v content, rather than the technology, in the original Millennium Dome let it down, but now the structure has a new lease of life, reports Geny Calois.

The beginning of the new millennium left Londoners with a huge dormant white elephant in north Greenwich. The Dome angered many people because of the ludicrous amount of taxpayers’ money – £750m – spent on something that only lasted a year and was closed for five.

But the days of the Dome’s useless existence are over. Now it has become a vibrant gathering space with plenty of things going on at any one time. This is the birth of ‘The O2.’
