The Twelfth Night celebrations in London take place every year on January 5th, one day before the Epiphany. The event marks the official end of the Christmas season and is celebrated with great enthusiasm in different parts of the city. The main venue for the event is the Bankside area, where the annual Twelfth Night celebration involves the burning of a wooden replica of the Shakespeare's Globe Theatre. The event includes a procession, with participants dressed in Elizabethan costumes, playing music, singing, and dancing. The processions typically begin at the Sir Francis Drake Golden Hinde and ends with the burning of the wooden globe at Bankside. There are also various street performances and activities, including puppet shows and magic shows that add to the festive atmosphere. Visitors can also enjoy food and drink from local vendors. The Twelfth Night celebrations are a must-see event for anyone visiting London in early January looking to experience the capital's rich history and culture.
