Since being founded in Greenwich in 2000, beers from the award-winning Meantime Brewery have spread across the country. Still produced in Greenwich, tours of the site are available and include a tasting session. A bar and shop on site mean that you can continue sampling beers after the tour has finished.

The London Marathon takes place annually, usually on the last Sunday of April. For both wheelchair racers and runners (elite, club and fun - many in fancy dress), it starts from the south side of Greenwich Park, on the common at Blackheath, then routes eastwards towards Charlton and Woolwich before turning west through Greenwich, past the Old Royal Naval College and Maritime Museum, and doing a loop around the Cutty Sark before heading off towards Deptford. Roads are closed. Many pubs and cafes open early, some with live music, serving spectators who line the route to cheer participants along.
The former Millennium Dome has been transformed into a major entertainment complex consisting of a large arena which plays host to a number of world class performers, a cinema which includes the largest screen in the UK, and numerous bars and restaurants. Tickets can be purchased in advance to join tours walking over the top of the dome, providing unique views.
