Westfield London shopping centre is the family leisure destination this summer, with six weeks of fabulous summer events and a dazzling line-up of fun activities for mums, dads and little ones too.
Kids will be entertained by their favourite characters and shows, and with our amazing Kids Eat for Free offer there’s never been a better time to indulge in delicious summer dishes from our restaurants and eateries. Not forgetting the grownups, summer sales in many of our 275 stores and a line up of blockbusters at Vue cinema, make Westfield London the destination for the family this summer with something for everyone.
Throughout August, the kids will be spoilt for choice at Westfield London. Some of the highlights of the summer events include:
Tinga Tinga Tales Art Workshop
Join Tinga Tinga Tales and become immersed in the wonderful African sights and sounds that inspired the Tinga Tinga Tales series on CBeebies. Each child will have the opportunity to paint their very own Tinga Tinga Tales tile, choosing from six stencils that represent the series’ six characters!
The painted tiles will form a beautiful moving wall collage throughout the day and, on collection, children can take home their art plus a Tinga Tinga Tales DVD (while stocks last). Under 3s will also have the chance to join in the fun as colouring-in sheets will be available in a dedicated area for little ones.
Tickets are not required for workshops and everyone is welcome to attend! Head to The Atrium from 10am to 5pm, on Tuesday 3rd August to join in the fun.
Face Painting at Butlers Chocolate Cafe
A trip to Butlers Cafe is as much of a treat for parents as it is for kids! So indulge in some luxurious truffles while the kids have their faces painted every weekend throughout August.
Postman Pat Meet & Greet
Meet everyone’s favourite postman - Postman Pat and his cat Jess too at Westfield London! To keep the kids smiling after the event, join the Westfield Kids Club and receive free, Postman Pat® SDS stickers and badges!
