Have you discovered this secret screen in Central London?
If you're a Wimbledon fan that didn't get tickets, what could be better than watching the action on a big screen in a comfy deckchair with a glass of Pimm's and a stunning view of St Paul's?
Everyday this week including the finals on Sunday, you'll be able to watch the tennis for free at One New Change, a shopping centre opposite St Paul's Cathedral. There are 16 deckchairs and a bunch of bean bags where, weather permitting, you can relax and watch the action from 11am - 8:30pm.
You can bring your own food and drink, including alcohol, just no glass, so grab a picnic and stock up on cans of G&T or Pimm's from the nearby Marks and Spencer!

If the weather is really grim, head over to the sister venue up on the roof of Cardinal Place, Victoria. This large roof terrace is glorious on sunny days with plenty of green space to relax on, but Cardinal Place also has a covered seating area, which means that you can enjoy watching the tennis there whatever the weather.
THINGS TO NOTE:
There is no roof at One New Change so bring an umbrella or coat if you want to keep watching in the rain (ah British summer...)
Equally, you're surrounded by reflective glass walls, so you'll also want suncream!
Closest tube stations are St Paul's (central line, 1 minute walk away) and Mansion House (district and circle line, 2 mins away)
The whole shopping area is no smoking.
Seats are first come first served and the site is busiest from 12:30-2ish and 5-7pm
