Canning Town's new lease of life

Situated on the north side of the Thames, the Canning Town district of East London was once part of the bustling and historic Royal Docks. Located between London City Airport and Canary Wharf, the area in more recent times has been the subject of major regeneration projects aimed at bringing it more in line with its thoroughly modern neighbours.

Something for everyone

There is plenty to see and do around Canning Town regardless of your interests. The ExCel Centre hosts an array of different events all year round, while anyone seeking retail therapy will love areas including Billingsgate Market and the designer brands on offer at Canary Wharf's underground malls. More adventurous visitors can also take the opportunity to climb up the side of The O2 to see great views of the capital.
