Open House Festival

This Open House Festival, we’re opening the doors of our iconic Laban Building and inviting our local community to come inside, explore and experience the home of Trinity Laban’s dance department.

Designed by Herzog & de Meuron, the Laban Building is one of London’s most distinctive cultural spaces. From its bold, colourful exterior to its dramatic studios and light-filled public spaces, there’s plenty to discover. Open House Festival is a fantastic opportunity to see behind the scenes, explore the building and find out more about the creative activity that happens here every day.

Whether you live locally, are visiting for the first time, or have always wondered what goes on inside, we’d love you to join us. Take part in a guided tour, try a free singing or Hip Hop dance workshop (or both), and get a taste of the creativity that’s at the heart of Trinity Laban.

Our guided tours will give you the chance to discover more about the building, its architecture and the spaces where our students, staff and visiting artists learn, create, rehearse and perform.
