A month-long celebration of architecture and city-making in June.
As one of the Festival’s longest-standing partners, the City of London returns to LFA2025 with a bold and diverse programme that brings the Square Mile to life this June. Against a backdrop of ancient alleyways and modern towers, the City’s streets will host a wide-ranging celebration of architecture, culture, and conversation—all through the lens of this year’s theme, Voices.
From playful wayfinding trails to installations, talks, and walking tours, the City’s programme invites visitors to explore how stories—historic and contemporary—shape our built environment. As part of the Destination City strategy, this programme marks another step in transforming the Square Mile into a more inclusive and welcoming place for all who live, work, study, or visit.
