Prepare for the capital’s dark January sky to be transformed into a dazzling neon; London Lumiere is back bringing dozens of amazing light installations across the city.

For four days there’ll be more than 40 artists from the UK and beyond transforming the greyness into a brightly coloured hive of creativity.Umbrella ProjectWatch out for the Umbrellas that will be popping up across London!

Lumiere is put on by top arts charity, Artichoke, which works with artists to bring conceptual artworks to public spaces. It all began up in Durham back in 2009 and spread south with the first London event held last year.

Highlights will include The Light of the Spirit, at Westminster Abbey by French artist Patrice Warrener as well as Voyage, an exploration of our journey through space and time at Piccadilly Circus by Camille Gross and Leslie Epsztein.Les LumineolesExpect Regent’s Street to be lit up this year for Lumiere
