London gears up to celebrate Canada Day on Sunday, June 30th, 2024, marking the national day of Canada. With over 80,000 Canadians residing in the UK, a significant portion of them calling London home, the city eagerly anticipates the festivities. Last year, the annual Canada Day celebrations in London attracted 30,000 attendees, showcasing the strong bond between Canada and the UK capital.<\/span><\/p>\n

From noon to 8 pm, the <\/span>Londonist<\/span><\/a> revealed, Londoners and visitors alike are invited to partake in free festivities and activities at Trafalgar Square. Highlights include live performances on the music stage featuring renowned bands like Tokyo Police Club and Alan Doyle.
