Summer Streets, in partnership with the Mayor of London is a celebration of London s premier shopping street, providing a unique opportunity to experience Regent Street, with its stunning architectural curve and its wide open streets, free of traffic.

Last year a total of 2 million people enjoyed Regent Street in all its traffic free glory over the 4 days. This year on Sunday July 13th, Summer Streets is incorporating the Love London Food Festival together with a programme of entertainment stages, music, outdoor performing arts and activities for all the family.
