Global Air Charters regularly charters clients to London. This year, we’ve already touched down for the championships at Wimbledon and the Salon Privé Car Show. Our knowledge of local airports and partners on the ground will ensure a seamless travel experience for your London holiday.
Here’s what to expect at this year’s Frieze London showcase. Contact our flight coordinators today to reserve your airframe.
Getting to Frieze London
London Heathrow (EGLL) is England’s largest airport, an international hub that’s one of the busiest in Europe. Arrival here could mean longer waiting times for takeoff and landing.
Customers might instead choose to arrive at London Luton Airport (EGGW) to avoid the congestion. Luton is one of England’s premier facilities for private jets. It has excellent amenities and services with quick and efficient transport into Central London.
London City Airport (EGLC) is even closer to the heart of town. Its private jet facilities are less extensive than Luton’s, however.
To visit Frieze London, you can catch a black cab or other car service to The Regent’s Park. You can also hop on the tube and take the Bakerloo Line to Regent’s Park Station.
What to Expect at Frieze London
When you arrive at The Regent’s Park, you’ll step into a vibrant, cosmopolitan atmosphere at Frieze London. The vast white tents will be filled with art dealers, curators, and art lovers of all stripes. You’ll see seasoned collectors looking to get an early grasp on the next big name.

Frieze London will showcase work from 160 galleries from 43 countries. This year’s fair will receive a new floor plan, with solo presentations and emerging artists prominently displayed. This year’s themed section, Smoke, will present ceramic works that channel indigenous traditions into contemporary art.
There are also two more exhibits running concurrently in The Regent’s Park. Frieze Sculpture is a free, open-air showcase of 22 leading international artists. Frieze Masters offers a juxtaposition to the contemporary fair with a showcase covering thousands of years of art history.
While You’re in London
If you want to continue your artistic visit outside The Regent’s Park, you can find several other major exhibitions around town. The National Portrait Gallery will show Francis Bacon: Human Presence.

The Royal Academy of Arts has a retrospective of Michael Craig-Martin, the influential British modernist.

Where to Eat and Stay Near The Regent’s Park
Located in a beautifully restored fire station in Marylebone, Chiltern Firehouse offers an exceptional local dining experience. The menu has a seasonal flare and does exceptional work with seafood and local produce.
While chicken tikka is the unofficial favorite dish of London, Trishna in Marylebone takes British-Indian cuisine to new heights. Their tandoori dishes are incredible, and their wine pairings elevate every plate.
There are several grand and luxurious hotels in the area. But we prefer the chic boutique feeling of the Charlotte Street Hotel. Located in Fitzrovia, a short stroll from The British Museum, its artistic sensibilities will perfectly complement your time at Frieze London.
