Head down to Leicester Square this July to watch the stars of new Batman film ‘The Dark Knight’ walk the red carpet.

The Dark Knight sees director Christopher Nolan return to the helm for this Batman Begins sequel. The Dark Knight tells the story of Batman’s fight against the murderously insane Joker, during which he is forced to create better fighting technology whilst confronting everything in which he believes.

The film stars Christian Bale, Michael Caine, Morgan Freeman, Maggie Gyllenhaal and the recently deceased Heath Ledger.

The UK premiere takes place in Leicester Square on Monday July 21st; you can’t watch the film just yet, so don’t be trying to get into the cinema without an invitation, but crowds tend to gather around the red carpet from 12pm.

Seeing a film in London is no longer a cheap night out, with tickets often costing about a tenner. But this summer you can get your movie fix for free (popcorn not included) at More London’s free film festival at The Scoop, an outdoor sunken amphitheatre.

The programme ranges from old favourites like The Sound of Music to recent blockbusters like Antonement. No need to book – just turn up to get seats on a first come, first served basis. Screenings start at 9pm from June until early September, next to City Hall, Riverside, The Queen’s Walk

Listen to the best steel drummers compete, a week before Notting Hill Carnival to decide who will enter the carnival as the coveted National Champions of Steel. Every year, on the weekend before Notting Hill Carnival, an enthusiastic crowd converge on Horniman’s Pleasance Park in west London, to watch London’s best kept secret - Panorama.

It has been a precursor to the festivities for 27 years, with the cream of the UK talent battling it out. Incredible steel drumming is the highlight of the carnival for many.

Notting Hill Carnival August 24-25.

Liam Neeson will be joined by a host of stars to celebrate The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian in what is billed as “the UK’s biggest film premiere”.

Prince Caspian, which is transforming London’s O2 Arena into a “super theatre”, follows the 2005 epic film The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe.

Based on the best-selling series of books by CS Lewis, the film took a massive 750 million dollars worldwide and was the biggest of the year.

Prince Caspian is the new instalment of The Chronicles, which promises to take audiences on an “extraordinary” journey back to the magical world of Narnia.

The premiere boasts the biggest ever single audience for a film premiere in the UK, the largest cinema screen to be constructed in Europe at 91ft by 38ft and the largest venue for a film screening in Europe.

Peninsula Square, the giant pedestrian area surrounding the arena, will be turned into a Narnia world, with fighting knights and horseback sword performers.

A massive 190 metre long red carpet will stretch the length of the square and a great showcase will entertain guests as they arrive at the O2.

Technicians have been installing a giant cinema screen into the arena, with a seating capacity of 10,000. A “rock and roll” sized 50,000 watt sound system will pump out HiFi cinema sound.

The cast members attending include Neeson (the voice of Aslan), Barnes, Anna Popplewell (Susan Pevensie), William Moseley (Peter Pevensie), Skandar Keynes (Edmund Pevensie), Georgie Henley (Lucy Pevensie) and the film’s director Andrew Adamson. David Walliams is also on the guest list.

The event will be held in support of Great Ormond Street Hospital. The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian is released in cinemas on June 26.
