SIX WORK PROGRAMMES 2022 > 2027
PROJECT: LONDON FESTIVAL OF ARCHITECTURE
The Fitzrovia Partnership and London Festival of Architecture have formed a four-year partnership to showcase Fitzrovia, often referred to as the spiritual home of architecture. This month-long celebration of architecture and city-making takes place every June across London. The Festival’s mission is to open up discussions around architecture, test new ideas and uncover and promote new talent.
What makes the LFA unique is that the LFA programme is people-led and curated by event organisers; focussed on collaboration with the people who live, shape, and truly know London. It’s the breadth and creativity of this community of event organisers that delivers such a varied and engaging programme of events for the festival each June.

London Festival of Architecture (LFA) came to Fitzrovia for the first time during June 2024. Fitzrovia was a LFA Destination which embraced the month-long celebration with more than 24 engaging events, and it was home to its first public realm competition and street activation which saw Warren Street ‘Reimagined’. The highly creative temporary intervention outside Warren Street tube station, by Able Partners and Elliott Wood, showcased how a difficult area can be transformed into a well-used public realm space.
The official launch of Rabbit Warren Street took place on 6 June with a two-day street activation managed by The Fitzrovia Partnership. Local businesses successfully used the extended footprint for food, drink and retail offers with live music in place for the opening day.
LFA2025 – ‘Voices’
The Fitzrovia Partnership and LFA are in the second year of a four-year collaboration aimed at reimagining public spaces in Fitzrovia. Building on the success of last year’s wayfinding installation outside Warren Street Station, this year’s temporary placemaking intervention will aim to address the area’s lack of public seating.
‘Fitz&Sits’ invited emerging architects, designers, and artists to create vibrant, sustainable seating solutions for Fitzrovia through a design competition. Nine winning designs will form a trail of seating solutions throughout June 2025, that reflect the neighbourhood’s unique personality while providing inclusive, inviting spaces for residents, workers, and visitors to relax and connect.
