Affordable Art Fair

This iconic British institution has spread its wings overseas in recent years, but Affordable Art Fair will always call London its home. The first of its three annual events in the capital comes to Battersea in Spring, showcasing the work of some of the most exciting artists working today, with all pieces priced between £100 and £10,000.

Frieze London

Perhaps London’s most renowned art fair, Frieze is certainly one of the biggest. Spread across Regent’s Park are three interconnected fairs: Frieze Sculpture, Frieze London and Frieze Masters. Frieze is all about contemporary art, from emerging to established artists – but you can get your pre-21st century fix at Frieze Masters. A programme of talks and special projects make this one of the more talked about London art fairs of the season.

Details: Frieze London runs 15–19 October 2025 in Regent’s Park. Tickets will be available to book closer to the time at frieze.com
