The Diana, Princess of Wales Memorial Playground in Kensington Gardens reopens on Wednesday, August 5, after a £3 million investment by The Royal Parks charity. The Peter Pan-themed playground, which sees over a million visitors a year, has a new 17-metre by 12-metre Galleon and a Treehouse. Families should expect queues, especially on weekends, as schools are on summer break.
