Royal Festival Hall

The Royal Festival Hall is unique in its conception as building as public open space accessible from all directions and from different levels.

The pedestrian flow around and through the Royal Festival Hall is a major component of the transformation of the public realm. Festival Square has become a strategic positioned public plaza with cafe terraces, public art and performance space anchoring the Royal Festival Hall within the Borough of Lambeth and allows for diagonal pedestrian movement across. Riverside Terrace has undergone a major transformation and allows for the important direct pedestrian flow between Queens Walk and the Royal Festival Hall.
