Wavelengths: October
London’s new night for under-25s is your creative remedy to the world around us – featuring live performances, workshops and beyond.
This is your invitation to step in, trust your feelings and find your wavelength.
The monthly event is formed around live performance, sensory activities and a growing community.
Whatever way you go, whatever you explore, we hope you leave the evening feeling just that little bit more yourself.
Come with friends, show up solo to meet new people or to have an individual experience. There’s no need to book, just turn up.
October’s line-up is announced soon.
