For kids in London — October 2026

For kids on in London during October 2026. This page narrows our full for kids programme down to what's running in October 2026, so you can plan ahead — dates, venues and booking, all in one place.

Keeping children entertained in London is easy once you know where to look. The city is packed with hands-on museums, free galleries, parks, workshops, family theatre and seasonal events — many of them free, and most easy to reach by tube or bus.

This page collects kid-friendly events and activities on across London now, hand-picked for families. We flag ages where it helps, show the venue and neighbourhood, and note dates and booking so a day out comes together quickly. During school holidays and half-term the programme expands, and you'll find dedicated round-ups for those weeks too.
