South Ken Culture Quarter is where cultural, scientific and creative worlds meet to make a place for curiosity. Here, in the world’s first planned cultural quarter, globally significant research and innovation across science, technology, design, engineering and music are reshaping our understanding of the world. Founded from the proceeds of the Great Exhibition of 1851, every day this is a place where ideas come to life.
South Ken Culture Quarter is a collective of 22 iconic institutions welcoming over 20 million visitors a year. Right in the heart of South Kensington, you’ll find one of the world’s greatest collections of museums, galleries, parks and cultural destinations — all within a few minutes’ walk of each other. With its unique mix of cultural, scientific, and artistic institutions — many offering free entry and programming — the Quarter opens a wide range of opportunities for visitors to explore, learn, and be inspired.
Together we are dedicated to making this a welcoming and thriving place to visit, live, study, and work — as well as a landmark destination that sparks curiosity and deepens our understanding of ourselves and our world.
We are also committed to work together to become a global exemplar of zero emissions, nature positive neighbourhood as we respond to the planet’s increasingly urgent climate and biodiversity crisis.
