Leicester Square

This is where to come on film premiere nights to catch your favourite stars. Otherwise there are lots of pubs, bars and cafes around for relaxing, a street performer or two, or – of course – cinemas!

When my friend and I happened upon it, they were having a concert in the square. Big band music. We sat for a while and listened. “Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban” was playing down there. We thought about going, but didn’t feel like paying about $20 for a movie we had already seen.
