About

As the pandemic recedes and society reopens, the 2021 Open House Festival will be a huge city-wide celebration of openness and exploring the London after a year of being stuck behind closed doors. 

The Open House Festival is the capital’s largest celebration of architecture, design, engineering and public space. Now in its 30th year, the festival is a truly city-wide celebration of the buildings, places and neighbourhoods that make London special. A simple but powerful concept, the festival provides an opportunity for ordinary people to explore buildings and spaces they are ordinarily locked out of and to learn about London’s incredible architecture, history and neighbourhoods  through directly experiencing great buildings and places.
