The first steps have been taken to ease lockdown, but we're still going to be spending plenty of time at home over the coming weeks.
Thankfully, London has been busy moving it’s cultural output online, and millions of us have been tuning in for theatre, comedy and art exhibitions from our sofas.
There’s good news for foodies, too, with more restaurants opening for delivery, and cinemas hopeful of opening soon.
These are our top picks of the things to get up to online today – make sure to check out our main guides for things to keep yourself occupied at home and new hobbies to try out too.
Take part in a virtual escape room experience
What started as a labour of love for Capital FM’s Dave Murphy has turned into something of a sensation during lockdown – the radio producer decided that instead of surprising his girlfriend with flowers on her birthday, he’d build her a series of virtual escape rooms which can be played in groups over zoom. They've been intriguing and tricking players online ever since. Read the full story here.
Tune in for a live human jukebox event
Camden Town Brewery has been busy during lockdown bringing virtual events to beer lovers at home, and it’s back tonight for something a little different. Head online from 8pm, when the brewery will be welcoming human jukebox Tony Bowen to perform songs requested by fans – it’s all for a good cause too, with money raised going to Hospitality Action.
Hear St Pancras’s resident pianist Benjamin Kahn live
Lots of people are missing the little things at the moment, but this might help. Imagine your striding through St Pancras on your way to catch a train with this recital from Benjamin Kahn, the French pianist who played the piano inside the station every day for five months, before his talents were recognised and he was invited to play at London's Hotel Café Royal and other venues. Tune in for a live performance on Instagram from 7pm.
See a classic gig from the Radiohead archives
Each week, Radiohead have pledged to upload footage from a classic gig onto their YouTube channel. So far, we’ve had shows in Dublin, Berlin, Buenos Aires, Coachella and beyond — tune in at 10pm to find out which one is next.
