What to expect

Leake Street, also known as the Banksy Tunnel, is a 300-meter-long road tunnel in Lambeth, London, where graffiti is legal and promoted. The tunnel is decorated with a forever-evolving collection of street art murals, and anybody is free to come and leave their mark on the walls. The street has a rich history, initially created during the Cans Festival organised by Banksy in 2008. The area is now home to various independent restaurants, bars, and entertainment spaces, including a Polish restaurant, a Philly dive bar, and a board game cafe. The tunnel is a popular spot for street artists, photographers, and those looking for a unique experience
