Focusing on the fusion of modern and traditional elements of the culture from Thailand, the Thai festival at Trafalgar Square is sure to be another fantastic addition to the calender of free events held there.

Traditional music and contemporary style folk dancing are just some of the delights you can expect during the Thai festival at Trafalgar Square, as the different regions of the country are represented in grand style.

London restaurants such as Mango Tree, Busaba Eathai, Thai Square and Patara will also be setting up stalls to offer some of their delicious cuisine.
