The FREE Line of Light outdoor festival features


lights and visual projections from Projection Teknik
and will follow the above-ground route of the 3km
Northern line extension tunnels each evening on
Friday 29 and Saturday 30 October.

Between 6.30pm and 10pm, a daisy-chain of high-


density light beams will illuminate the new stations
at Battersea Power Station and Nine Elms, and paint
the route of the tunnels in the sky to create the Line
of Light.

A selection of buildings along the route between


Battersea Power Station and Kennington station will
be lit up with visual projections, accompanied by
soundscapes available as downloadable podcasts
which have been created with local groups and the
Royal College of Art to make an specially-
commissioned ‘album’ of the area.

Celebrate the new Northern line extension with the


communities who live and work above the route
between Battersea Power Station, Nine Elms and
Kennington Tube stations.

Two outdoor festival hubs at New Union Square,


SW11, and Wilcox Road, SW8, will bring together
local businesses and communities with pop-up food
stalls open from 4pm-9pm and free activities and
entertainment for all ages from 6pm-9pm.
