    Have to go to London for all of next week for meetings/ interviews.

    I'll be there most of Sunday & fly out Friday night.

    My days are filled, but I'm wondering if there are any interesting cheap/free things to do in the evenings.

    Will be smack bang in the centre.

    Thanks.

    Museums and galleries are free and usually open late one night per week.
    e.g British Museum, National Gallery, Tate Modern... All fabulous venues

    Walk in the park(s) Green, St James , Regents, Hampstead Heath where you can swim in the lakes.

    Walk the south bank to St Pauls and millenium bridge

    The Globe Theatre is open at the moment - you can get standing tickets for £5 and there are usually some available on the night too. Evening shows are around 7:30 I think, and it's always a good laugh, even if your Shakespeare isn't too hot.

    Or there are always loads of cheap comedy or music shows on - have a look at lastminute.com or timeout.com/london for some ideas.

    Coronet Cinema in Notting Hill is £3.50 on Tuesdays

    http://www.coronet.org/

    Lexi Cinema is £5 on Mondays

    http://thelexicinema.co.uk

    both easily accessible from centre of town.

    Walking tours are a cheap way to get to know the city and learn something and can be a good way to meet people too.
