Welcome to Wandsworth We are London Borough of Culture

This is our year as The Mayor's London Borough of Culture, a year to show how culture can spark joy, making us feel happier, healthier and more connected to each other.

We're bringing people together to enjoy the rich mix of traditions, festivals, food, and arts that make our borough so special. It's about creating something we can all be proud of and building connections that will last well into the future.
