Covent Garden London

Postby Roland » Sep 9th, '05, 08:05



I just thought that I would let everyone know, that whilst magic has always been part of the street entertainment in Covent Garden, there now appears to be a regular group of more serious magicians performing on a Sunday.

This takes place not in the main bit of the piazza, but on the walk up to the tube station, next to the opera house.

I've seen them there a few times, so if you are strolling around London on a Sunday its worth a visit and its good to have a chat with them too.

Thanks for that Roland and I for one will check it out when in London next time.

I know exactly where you mean and this now appears to be the preferred spot for most of the street entertainers in Covent Garden now, rather than in the main square or piazza itself.

From my observations there seems to have been lots of guitar and bongo bands of late and a few juglers. The magicians have seemed to be in short supply which is a real shame.

Perhaps we should all travel there, meet and perfrom a mass magic show :?:
