Archikids Festival 2017

The Archikids Festival will return once more to London’s most iconic buildings. The free programme lets children between the ages of five and 11 act as ‘architectives’ for the weekend by exploring the practical and cultural facets of the city.

Start the summer holidays by discovering London’s feats of architectural prowess through a series of ‘architivities’, ‘architales’, ‘archifacts’, and ‘archigames’ that provides kids and families with the opportunity to dabble in artistic expression while investigating London's construction and design.

Featuring more than 30 free activities, some of this year's highlights include contributing to the tallest Lego tower at the Gherkin, the chance to design a new museum in the Museum of London galleries and explore the gardens of St Paul's Cathedral.

Activities take place around the Square Mile and some of the City's most iconic buildings are opening to families, so kids can explore aspects of design and construction.

This year’s free programme will be announced soon. Check the Archikids website for updates.

Suitable for ages 5-11
