A new annual festival at the Southbank Centre, a gathering of people who curate, make, build, and think at the intersection of creativity and technology inspired by the 1951 the Festival of Britain. As part of the SC’s 75th anniversary, this new, annual festival brings artists, educators, and technologists together to explore what a creative future could become.
Commissioned & Produced by Southbank Centre. Curated by Keri Elmsly and PACT.
For the curious, excited, dubious or understandably bewildered, this festival presents free demos, debate, experiments, prototypes and performances in the Southbank’s foyers, terraces, pavilions and venues.
A collective experience that will go behind the headlines: find out how things work, what is possible, and decide what you think of it. Be inspired as the Southbank Centre again becomes a creative playground filled with imaginative and provocative ideas, with opportunities to meet, talk and debate with curators, artists, our leading creative universities, entrepreneurs, experts and practitioners from grass roots to academia to commerce.
