By now you're surely used to us telling you about London topping various lists to determine the best of the best, and if you live here you're probably not surprised either. Back in January we shared that the city was ranked as the best in the world by consultancy group Resonance, and now the group has released the World's Best Cities 2024. Guess who came out on top?

London continues to reign supreme over literally everywhere else, taking the top spot for the ninth year running. The city also ranked as the best for culture and educational attainment. Similarly to the previous list, the capital was noted for successfully navigating a new post-pandemic and post-Brexit landscape. The vast number of tourists who visit, international investment into the city, and the exciting new restaurants and hotels continually opening up here were also noted.

With London officially being the best, there's a wealth of things to do around here. Check out our comprehensive range of city guides or our events calendar to find great places and events all over the capital.
