Fantastic Feats: The Building of London

Celebrate triumphs of architecture, invention and engineering with Fantastic Feats: the building of London. This six-month long programme of street theatre and circus, art, music, exhibitions, walks and tours is inspired by several important historical anniversaries, including the 200th birthday of Sir Joseph Bazalgette (inventor of London’s sewer system) and celebrating 125 years since the completion of Tower Bridge and 150 years since Blackfriars Bridge and Holborn Viaduct opened.

With tons of fun and educational activities going on for 6 months, we've picked out some of the most exciting family-friendly events:
