What is Culture Mile?
Culture Mile is the City of London’s emerging cultural district, stretching from Farringdon through to Moorgate, led by the City of London Corporation, with the Barbican, Guildhall School of Music & Drama, London Symphony Orchestra and the Museum of London. Together the five core partners are creating a vibrant cultural area in the north-west corner of the Square Mile, through a programme of inspiring activities in unexpected places. From championing the area’s unique creative enterprise ecosystem to stimulating the growth of the local economy, Culture Mile also strengthens the area’s credentials as a place to do business.
By bringing together some of the capital’s top cultural organisations, Culture Mile is creating a major new cultural district in our city that will bring opportunity, inspiration and entertainment to Londoners and visitors for generations to come.
