What to expect
The Kings Cross Bird Cage Swing, also known as the IFO (Identified Flying Object), is a large art installation located in Battle Bridge Place, London. The 9m high structure, designed by French artist and architect Jacques Rival, features a giant 'birdcage' with wide enough bars for people to walk through and a swing at its centre. By day, it acts as a framing device for the daily street theatre, while at night it transforms into a luminous spectrum, releasing the energy it has accumulated during the day. The installation is a popular spot for both locals and visitors, and its quirky design makes it a standout feature in the area. The birdcage is suitable for people of all ages, and its interactive nature makes it a great spot for families to enjoy together
