London Festival of Architecture

Details

The London Festival of Architecture is one of the world's the largest annual architecture festivals. With an impressive lineup of events and activities taking place right across London every June, the event welcomes everyone into the conversation around architecture and the city.

During June 2021, teams across the Royal Institute of British Architects are hosting a range of exciting events, both online and in person, that respond to the theme of this year's London Festival of Architecture: Care. The versatility of this theme has led the organisers to take a number of approaches, such as talking to practices about how they care for each other, our planet and the industry, exploring how spaces can affect us mentally and emotionally, and exploring the ability of photography to highlight the complexity of mass production and modern consumerism.

Whether you're a practicing architect, a student or just looking to find out more about architecture during this annual festival, there's something for everyone in this programme.
