South Bank & Waterloo will take centre stage during this year’s London Festival of Architecture.
As one of the key LFA2026 neighbourhoods, the programme will explore how culture, creativity, design and inclusive growth continue to shape one of London’s most important and evolving districts.
Our programme begins today with Illuminating Safety, exploring how lighting can transform underused spaces, improve visibility and support safer, more welcoming night-time environments. It's a conversation that closely aligns with Lambeth's ambitions for an inclusive and thriving night-time economy.
Throughout June, we'll also be exploring:
🚶 Wayfinding and public space in Waterloo
🌙 Community life after dark
📈 South Bank & Waterloo's next decade of growth
🤝 How design, culture and innovation can foster a stronger sense of belonging
Tonight's event, along with the wider programme, is open to everyone. We encourage you to attend, get involved in the conversation and help shape the future of this exciting part of the borough.
