Leake Street Arches
Eight former railway arches beneath Waterloo Station have been transformed into an urban playground.
Since 2008, when infamous street artist Banksy held a festival there, Leake Street Arches has become an ever-changing urban art gallery. A 300-metre tunnel features London’s longest legal graffiti art wall, featuring murals from some of the biggest names in street art.
Visitors are actively encouraged to pick up the paints and leave their own mark too. Independent street food spots and dive bars add to the underground vibe and offer families a welcome pit stop from all the painting.
