London's culture scene has well and truly got up off its arse and out of hibernation. Whether you're weeping over the Charli xcx-soundtracked Wuthering Heights or examining the used condoms strung along Tracey Emin's 'My Bed' this Feb, on top of all that you've got a wealth of incredible gigs. Expect arena-sized pop moments, cult club residencies and sweaty guitar shows that demand your very last shred of energy.
