About this Event

Lucent Twilight Tours

As London's West End lights start to sparkle, join us for a twilight tour of Lucent - a remarkable mixed-use development that has reimagined the spaces behind London’s iconic Piccadilly Circus billboard. This tour offers a unique opportunity to understand the rich history of the surrounding neighbourhood and how Lucent's innovative design has reimagined the streetscape of this landmark setting visited by millions each year.

The tour will commence at the Shaftesbury memorial fountain at Piccadilly Circus. Led by members of the team who delivered the project, the exterior tour will provide insight into the design of Lucent and how site's extraordinary history continues to inform and inspire how it is experienced today. In true West End spirit, participants are invited to join us at the local pub for a drink afterwards. The entire tour will last approximately 1 hour.
