Summer in the city… the best place to be is in the garden. Not just Covent Garden, but our own gem of a semi-wild oasis, The Phoenix Garden.
On the afternoon of Sunday 25th June there will be a free barbecue in the garden. With a forecast of 28 degrees, there will also be lots of cold drinks!
If you are a local and would like to join us, please email Admin@ThePhoenixGarden.org to be added to the guest list.
