El Portobello Film Festival regresa con el mejor cine independiente

El Portobello Film Festival es uno de los eventos más señalados del calendario de cine británico. Tras dieciocho años dando a conocer nuevos cineastas, el festival regresa en el 2013 para explorar el tema de ‘Rock and Roll Cinema and Art’.

La edición de este año albergará el estreno mundial del ‘biopic’ situacionista de Phil Strongman “Anarchist”, dedicada a la vida de Malcom McLaren, además de una exhibición en el Louise T. Blouin Institute y 17 días de proyecciones en los Westbourne Studios y el Portobello Pop Up Cinema en el Westway. Como viene siendo habitual, el festival cuenta con una extensa serie de eventos y curiosidades cinéfilas que promete hacer las delicias de los aficionados al cine ‘indie’.

Como novedad, la edición de este año presentará un cine en Acklam Road, en la unión de Westway con Portobello Road. Este Pop Up Cinema proyectará películas sin parar desde las 6 de la tarde cada día excepto los lunes.

Desde la gran apertura el jueves 29 de agosto hasta el 15 de septiembre, el programa del Pop Up Cinema contará con un gran número de películas independientes, además de un tributo a Hitchock que tendrá lugar el 31 de agosto y dos noches dedicadas al cine de humor, las del 7 y 8 de septiembre. Con entrada gratuita cada noche, bar y cafetería y puestos de comida, el Pop Up Cinema constituye una visita obligada para cinéfilos de estos y otros lares durante septiembre.

Con tanto que explorar en el Portobello Film Festival, lo ideal es alojarse lo más cerca posible de la acción. Con esto en mente, LondonTown.com, en colaboración con una serie de hoteles Londres, ofrece en su portal una serie de descuentos en alojamiento durante el festival.

Entre los hoteles cercanos al festival se encuentran el Pembridge Palace Hotel, de tres estrellas y a tan solo 14 minutos de Portobello Road, con tarifas reducidas hasta un 41% en habitaciones dobles, y el Shaftsbury Premier London Notting Hill, con un 86% de descuento reservando a través de LondonTown.com.

London Hotels Offer Discounts for Notting Hill Carnival

The Notting Hill Carnival has been injecting noise and colour into London’s West End since 1966, when it was established by the Caribbean community. It is now Europe ‘s biggest street party, featuring floats, costumed dancers, calypso and soca musicians, and in excess of a million revellers of all ages. To coincide with the August Bank Holiday event, booking website LondonTown.com has announced discounted rates on a number of London hotels in the area.

The Carnival Bands start at around 9am on Sunday 25th August and at the same time on Monday 26th. The Sunday is officially designated Children’s Day, and Monday is for Adults. Dozens of Djs will entertain the crowds across Static Sound Systems 40 rigs. The usual mix of latin jazz, reggae, garage, hip hop and samba will dominate the decks. Highlights include Gaz’s Rockin’ Blues stage, which emits sounds heavy on the jazz-reggae.

Visitors are advised to use public transport as most of the local roads are closed to vehicles. Some underground stations may be temporarily closed if they become overcrowded, so revellers should check their planned route before departing.

Probably the egalitarian highlight of the London summer, the Notting Hill Carnival is free of charge for everyone, but partiers coming from outside the capital might be able to make use of LondonTown.com, which has recently announced discounts on a number of London hotels close to the action.

Among the London hotels participating in the offer, the Abbey Court Notting Hill has cut 27% off the standard room rate for double and twin rooms. The discount brings the cost of a night’s stay down to £128. The Abbey Court is located on Pembridge Gardens, less than ten minutes’ walk from the heart of the Carnival.

On the same street, 10 Pembridge Gardens by Mondo is a collection of studio apartments available for nightly rental. During the Carnival, they are offering studio rooms at a 20% discount, bringing the cost of a night’s stay down to just £110.

Both deals are available exclusively when booking via LondonTown.com. Contact the website for more discounted London hotels, and for more information on this year’s Notting Hill Carnival.

Bruce Springsteen encabezará el Hard Rock Calling 2013

El Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, en pleno corazón del parque olímpico de Stratford (Londres), albergará su primer gran evento desde los Juegos del año pasado. Hard Rock Calling, uno de los festivales más importantes de Londres, regresa este año con un cartel realmente atractivo.

De este modo, el festival se traslada al este de Londres tras siete años celebrándose en Hyde Park. Para celebrar la ocasión, la edición de este año contará con un gran elenco de leyendas del rock durante el fin de semana del 29 y 30 de junio.

La sola presencia de Bruce Springsteen y la E Street Band en el cartel de este año debería ser suficiente para que los fans del rock pongan a punto sus guitarras imaginarias, pero este año el Hard Rock Calling subirá el volumen unos decibelios con un cartel que también incluye a Paul Weller, Kasabian, Alabama Shakes y The Black Crowes. No es de extrañar que este festival atraiga a más de 150.000 melómanos a la capital cada año.

El Hard Rock Calling se situará en el recinto ocupado el verano pasado por la pista de hockey. De este modo se trata de reconvertir el legado post-olímpico del Queen Elizabeth Park en un flamante nuevo espacio para eventos de este tipo en la capital.

Aquellos que planeen una visita al este de Londres no tendrán problema en encontrar alojamiento en esta rejuvenecida parte de la ciudad. Además, el portal de reservas de hoteles y eventos en Londres más importante de Internet, LondonTown.com, ofrece en su página una gran selección de hoteles en Londres a precios reducidos durante el fin de semana del festival.

The RE London Shoreditch hotel está situado a 3 kilómetros del parque olímpico y ofrece además excelentes conexiones con el centro de la capital. Reservando a través de LondonTown.com se obtiene hasta un 68% de descuento en habitaciones con dos camas individuales, con precios desde las 74 libras.

Michael Bublé ofrecerá diez actuaciones en el O2 Arena

El canta-autor canadiense Michael Bublé volverá al Reino Unido a finales de junio para instalarse en el O2 Arena de Londres durante 10 días. Estas actuaciones, desde el domingo 30 de junio hasta el sábado 13 de julio, será la vez que ningún cantante masculino actúe tanto tiempo, solo excedido por Prince.

El cantante galardonado con premios Grammy y número uno en las principales listas, interpretará temas de su último álbum “To Be Loved”, además de los clásicos de su amplio catálogo de álbums; “It’s Time” (2005), “Call Me Irresponsible” (2007), “Crazy Love” (2009) y “Christmas” (2011). Bublé ha vendido más de 30 millones de discos en todo el mundo y esta es la oportunidad perfecta de presenciar al melódico cantante en vivo con temas como “Haven’t Met You Yet”, “Some Kind of Wonderful” y “Me and Mrs Jones”.

En lo referente al auditorio para tal estrella, el O2 Arena de Londres es realmente la opción número uno. Como pieza central del reformado Millennium Dome, el O2 es el primer auditorio de música de Londres construido para tal efecto, y tiene un aforo de 23.000. Durante estas fechas Bublé hará historia al intentar igualar previas actuaciones continuas de las leyendas de la música. Prince alcanzó el récord de 21 noches en el 2007, el fallecido Michael Jackson iba a hacer un maratón de 50 días en el 2009 pero no pudo llevarlo a cabo, y Roger Waters actuó seis noches como parte de su gira “The Wall Live” del 2011.

Encontrar un Londres hoteles para alojarse después del concierto no supondrá ningún problema con las ofertas que LondonTown.com tiene junto al O2. Ahora se puede reservar una doble con un fabuloso descuento del 64% en el Radisson Blu Edwardian New Providence Wharf desde 217 libras la noche. Si se busca algo más módico, el Ibis London Docklands, a unos diez minutos del auditorio, ofrece dobles con dos camas desde tan solo 73 libras la noche (incluye un descuento del 33%).

Legendary Spanish restaurant elBulli goes on display at London’s Somerset House

For many of us ‘elBulli: Ferran Adrià and The Art of Food’, a new exhibition opening at the Embankment Galleries of London’s Somerset House on Friday 5th July 2013, will be as close to eating at the famous Spanish restaurant, its 50-course tasting menus, and its distinctive brand of molecular gastronomy as we will get – especially since it closed its doors in 2011.

The retrospective at the Embankment Galleries, Somerset House, gives visitors a behind-the-scenes look at the creation of Adrià’s unique cuisine. Chefs who worked at the restaurant under Adrià’s leadership included Heston Blumenthal whose restaurant at London restaurant, Dinner by Heston Blumenthal, at the Mandarin Oriental in Knightsbridge ranks among the most prestigious London restaurants.

The multimedia exhibition at Somerset House offers an insight into the research behind each dish, revealed through handwritten notes and sketches. Also on display are plasticine models which were made for all the dishes – and the elBulli team invented 1,846 of them – used as a means of quality control for colour, portion size and position on the plate.

The London show is a taster of what is next for elBulli – Adrià intends to reopen in 2015 with a foundation to safeguard the legacy of the restaurant and to create Bullipedia, a central resource documenting culinary history and providing research material for chefs around the world.

In addition to the exhibition, which continues until 29th September 2013, there’s the chance to meet the man himself at ‘An Audience with Ferran Adrià’ on the opening night, Friday 5th July 2013, when he will discuss the afterlife of the restaurant, and his ongoing projects. Tickets, at £25, include a complimentary drink, and free entry to the exhibition (which has a standard entry fee of £10) until 9.30pm.

From 10th July onwards visitors can see two Embankment Galleries shows when they book a joint ticket for £12.50 (£10.50 concessions), £6.25 on Mondays (excluding Bank Holidays) which includes entry into ‘elBulli: Ferran Adrià’ and ‘The Art of Food and Miles Aldridge: I Only Want You To Love Me’, a major retrospective on the London-born photographer who has works in the permanent collection of the National Portrait Gallery and the Victoria & Albert Museum.

For more information on all exhibitions and restaurants, new openings and the latest events in London go to LondonTown.com where a wide choice of London hotels to suit all budgets, information on restaurants, bars and cafes as well as all the major attractions is provided.

Renewable Home Energy.org Educates and Connects

Renewable energy – if you haven’t noticed, it’s the buzz around the world. We are using an alarming amount of fossil fuels every day; fossil fuels that won’t last forever. Some experts say we will be known as the generation that destroys the earth unless we change our energy behavior now.

“Renewable Energy makes sense from both a financial and a green responsibility” says Todd Sachs, co-founder and Chief Marketing Officer of www.renewablehomeenergy.org.

“We are committed in educating consumers on how to turn their homes into Renewable Energy Homes. We help by connecting consumers with qualified installers throughout the United States so they can save money on their fast rising energy bills, create more value in their home investment, and join together in reducing dependency on fossil fuels; together reducing the carbon footprint.” Sachs says.

A recent press release from the whitehouse.gov states the following:
“President Obama is committed to an “all-of-the-above” approach that develops all American energy sources in a safe and responsible way and builds a clean and secure energy future. That’s why the President’s plan:

Challenges Americans to double renewable electricity generation again by 2020. In order to double generation from wind, solar, and geothermal sources by 2020, relative to 2012 levels, the President called on Congress to make the renewable energy Production Tax Credit permanent and refundable, which will provide incentive and certainty for investments in new clean energy. Instead of continuing century-old subsidies to oil companies, the President believes that we need to invest in the energy of the future. During the President’s first term, clean energy tax incentives attracted billions of dollars in private investment in almost 50,000 clean energy projects, creating tens of thousands of jobs. Permanent extension keeps the momentum building, while creating new jobs in clean energy.”

Once Americans realize just how possible it is to remove their home from the grid completely and/or partially, many will turn to clean energy sources such as wind, solar and geothermal for home energy systems. Renewable Home Energy (www.renewablehomeenergy.org) just launched last week and is serving-up a great way to connect homeowners with qualified renewable energy installers throughout the entire United States.

Renewable Home Energy is committed to working with local governments, manufactures and installers to help develop affordable ways for consumers to save money with Renewable Energy to remove them from the grid and reduce the carbon footprint by reducing the usage of the finite fossil fuels.

The process is easy. Just click on www.renewablehomeenergy.org and learn about Renewable Energy for your home. You can also complete a form to connect with a Renewable Energy Installer. You will be contacted by qualified installers in your immediate area. They will review your current energy consumption and suggest the best Renewable Energy alternatives for your home.

There are great tax incentives for you to install renewable energy in your home, and great finance options with 4% or less interest rates for up to 10 year terms for qualified buyers.
