With the end of the April showers there is the beginning of May, and there's no shortage of things to do in London this Bank Holiday Weekend, take a look at our suggestions:
LOSE yourself in a jungle of butterflies at the Natural History Museum. Visitors are led on a trail from the forest floor to the tree canopy, with flora and fauna of the rainforest including iguana, iridescent fruit beetles and a giant centiped on display.
TRAVEL through time to be present at the trial of Anne Boleyn in a costumed interpretation of the last days of the queen as she is accused of treason.
WATCH an unconventional beauty pageant with the Alternative Miss World, hosted by Andrew Logan and Ruby Wax at The Roundhouse.
WELCOME the spring weather with The Great London Garden Trail; a self-guided tour of ten stunning gardens in central London.
CELEBRATE the month of May with Henry VIII's May Day Celebration. A programme of performances, re-enactments, Tudor sports, workshops and stalls. There's also an attempt to set a world record for a gathering of Henry VIII look-a-likes!
EXPERIENCE the 'original and unpredictable' work of 2007 Turner prize-winner Mark Wallinger at The Hayward. This unique exhibition exploring notions of the liminal: thresholds between physical, political or metaphysical realms.
INDULGE your senses with a panoramic video-sound installation dealing with the experience of space and time. New York-based artist Peter Coffin explores various models of perspective and challenges the way in which we perceive space.
EXPLORE 40 years of exploration into intersubjectivity, architecture's inscribing of power relations and New Age philosophy. The Lisson Gallery is exhibiting the ambitious work of Dan Graham.
