TOTALLY THAMES 2025 Returns This September
This year, the festival takes on new urgency with a renewed focus on ecology and care, spotlighting the river's environmental fragility.
From Monday 1st to Sunday 28th September, the Totally Thames festival will return to the capital with a spectacular, multi-arts programme that celebrates the River Thames' past, present, and future. Produced by the Thames Festival Trust, this beloved annual event once again invites Londoners and visitors alike to experience the city's iconic river through music, dance, art, film, installations, clean-ups, and community events.
This year, the festival takes on new urgency with a renewed focus on ecology and care, spotlighting the river's environmental fragility amid rising concerns around pollution and habitat degradation. Collaborating with artists, activists, and communities, Totally Thames 2025 explores how creativity can deepen our relationship with the river and reimagine sustainable futures.
Totally Thames 2025 is a rallying call to reconnect with London’s river—not just as a site of heritage, but as a living force shaping the city’s future. Through art, action, and imagination, the festival invites audiences to rediscover the Thames in all its complexity.
