The banks of the River Thames was thronged with people on 12th September as the thirteenth Mayor's Thames Festival got underway.

The festival is split into four zones, running between Westminster Bridge to Tower Bridge "and beyond", though in this case "beyond" really means St. Katherine Docks. Here are some of the highlights:

Carnival: Come nightfall on the Sunday, 2,000 musicians and dancers will take to the streets, travelling along Victoria Embankment and then over a traffic-free Blackfriars Bridge.

Taking part this year: APPLE, ArtStart, Bigga Fish, Bloco do Sol Nascente, Blocofogo, Bolivia Sin Fronteras, Brunel Engine House Museum, Cardboard Citizens, Elimu Paddington Arts, Emergency Exit Arts, Emily Tracy, First Chance Project, Fox Carnival Band, Imagineer Productions, Inspire, Inspiration Arts, In Toto Theatre, Kinetika Bloco, Little Light Sparks, London School of Samba, Mandinga Arts, New Generation, PaBoom, Paraiso School of Samba, Same Sky, SE1 Utd, Shademakers, South Connections, Sunshine International Arts, Taru.

The Feast on the Bridge: Dubbed London's "most inspiring and spectacular food event" by organisers, this event sees Southwark Bridge closed to traffic and festooned with market food sellers, musicians, and a hand-powered cinema for the evening finale.

River Parade: On Saturday afternoon a parade of vessels large and small, old and new, will set out from the QE2 pier and chug as far as Lambeth Bridge before turning back.
