When packing for London in June, choose light layers like t-shirts and a light jacket for temperatures ranging from 54°F to 68°F. Evenings can be surprisingly cool, especially with the breeze at high-rise attractions like The Shard, so always have an extra layer handy.

Based on typical June conditions in London. Weather varies year to year — check the live forecast when you're within two weeks of your trip.
June marks the official start of summer in London, bringing long, bright days and some of the year's most pleasant weather. The city comes alive with outdoor events, from music festivals in Victoria Park to open-air theatre in Regent's Park. It's the ideal time to enjoy a picnic, explore the city's sprawling green spaces, or dine alfresco in Covent Garden. While days are often warm and sunny, a classic London pain point is the unexpectedly cool evening. After a warm day, temperatures can drop significantly once the sun goes down, catching many visitors by surprise. A stylish scarf or a light jacket is essential for staying comfortable while enjoying a late-night stroll along the Thames or sitting outside a pub.
A black blazer over an ivory blouse and pleated maxi skirt in warm rain is complete formal coverage. Black mule heels are the practical formal choice when espadrilles are off the table.
A black longline parka over a crewneck sweatshirt in warm rain has a deliberateness that works. Ivory satin mules and a cream beanie are the contrasts that make it.
A black rain jacket over ivory linen trousers refuses to look sloppy in warm rain. Espadrilles and a crochet bucket hat keep the warm-weather mood alive below the waterline.
A light wash denim jacket over a denim mini skirt makes a strong case for double denim in warm rain. The black square neck top underneath adds structure.
A blush cropped jacket over a white linen blouse and ivory wide-leg trousers refuses to look heavy in warm rain. Tortoiseshell cat-eye sunglasses are the editorial punctuation.
A white linen blazer over matching wide-leg linen trousers and a blue collarless blouse stays entirely polished through warm rain. Slide sandals and gold aviators make it feel like summer despite the drizzle.
A yellow hooded rain jacket over biker shorts and a longline tee handles warm rain with high-visibility attitude. Ivory pointed-toe mules are the surprising finishing note.
Wear light clothing like t-shirts, blouses, and light trousers or skirts during the day. Always bring a light jacket, cardigan, or sweater for the cooler evenings. A compact umbrella or a light rain jacket is still a wise precaution for passing showers.
June is a fantastic time to visit London, offering some of the best weather of the year and a packed calendar of events. It is peak tourist season, so expect the city to be busy and prices for flights and accommodation to be high. Book well in advance to get the best deals.
Comfort is paramount, so pack your favorite stylish sneakers, comfortable sandals, or flats for walking. Since you'll be on your feet for hours exploring, make sure your shoes are well-worn. Keep a pair of closed-toe shoes for cooler evenings or rainy days.
June in London is pleasantly warm, with average high temperatures of 68°F and lows around 54°F. While occasional heatwaves can push temperatures higher, you should generally expect mild summer weather perfect for being outdoors. It's rarely uncomfortably hot.
Pack a mix of lightweight tops, trousers, skirts, or dresses. Include a versatile light jacket and a sweater for layering in the evenings. Don't forget sunglasses, sunscreen, a reusable water bottle, a compact umbrella, and comfortable walking shoes.
