Summer Lights

Canary Wharf’s Summer Lights Display is Back for 2022
Canary Wharf's unique Summer Lights display is back to celebrate the beauty of natural light with a series of colourful outdoor light installations, officially opening on summer solstice.

 

The outdoor exhibition will run from Tuesday 21 June to Saturday 20 August, letting visitors take advantage of the long summer days when visiting the showcase that is enhanced by the play of natural light.

 

The free display will see Canary Wharf's six permanent light installations joined by 11 newly commissioned sculptures. The sparkling and colourful artworks will come to life at sunrise as the daylight shines through, creating beautiful patterns across the ground and nearby structures. People are invited to visit during daylight hours to see the light artworks play with the sun's rays revealing ever-changing refractions and colours. To guide visitors through the display, a digital map will be available to help visitors navigate their way around the sculptures.

 

Canary Wharf is home to a vast and rapidly growing collection of artworks including a number of exhibitions in addition to London's largest collection of public outdoor art which features over 110 works available to view for free around the estate. 

 

Fiona Grady's artwork Kaleidoscopic Prisms is part of the festival - you can find it located in Jubilee Place.
