FREE Social Walk, Games and Pub | Little Venice

Autumn has arrived, and this Sunday - we’re making the most of the season’s changing colours with our latest Social Walk and Pub Trip, exclusively for 20s and 30s.

Yep for our latest social walk on Sunday, we'll be heading to one of the most stunning walking spots in the city - the canals of Little Venice, to mark the end of the North Paddington Canalside Festival.

We will be kicking off the event at Meanwhile Gardens nearby the festival, for a mix of fun games designed to get people talking and help you to get to know some of the other participants on the walk a little better.

Once we’re warmed up, we’ll set out on a 2–3 hour stroll along London’s most iconic waterways.

Our route will follow the Grand Union Canal, passing through Paddington and North Kensington, and taking us right through the heart of Little Venice - a picture-perfect spot filled with colourful houseboats and stunning architecture.

We’ll continue on through the greenery of Regent’s Park before finishing near a cosy cafe near the park - where you can grab a drink, enjoy a bite to eat, and spend more time getting to know your new friends.

Places are limited, and this event always fills up fast - so grab your spot while you can!
