Future Cargo
A truck arrives from an unknown location loaded with a mystery shipment. As the sides roll up, a strange and unstoppable process is set into motion. Future Cargo is the latest outdoor work by Frauke Requardt & David Rosenberg.
Music of the Spheres
See the docks transformed as giant spheres float on the water filled with performers, lights, music and more, for a spectacular you won’t want to miss. Created by the Colourscape artists, these bubbles have inspired wonder worldwide, including at Latitude Festival, lakes in Portugal, and the river Aura in Finland.
Healing Together
A spectacular fire and light installation will unite the north and south banks of the Thames in the spirit of healing for this fun-filled, family-friendly weekend. Taking place as part of Greenwich & Docklands International Festival, there will be art installations co-created with local communities, performances, and local food and drink, filling Royal Victoria Gardens with uplifting moments and time for reflection.
