Easter Bank Holiday In London

London is the perfect place to visit during the Easter Bank Holiday Weekend. A lot of Londoners take advantage of the Bank Holiday to escpae the city so it means it is slightly quieter and easier to get around for the rest of us. Visitors during this time will also benefit from reduced queues at London attractions and can haggle for hotel deals by staying longer than the average 2 nights.

When is Easter 2010?

Easter Bank Holiday Weekend is the 2nd to the 5th April 2010. Easter itself is a religious event, more info can be found here. Although the majority of us probably associate Easter with stuffing our faces with Chocolate Easter eggs on Easter Sunday.
