The Barbican, a renowned London arts center, will undergo a £191 million renovation, closing for a year starting June 2028. The project, funded by the City of London Corporation, aims to revitalize spaces, restore iconic areas, and improve accessibility. Construction begins in 2027, with the first phase completed by 2030. The renovation prioritizes sustainability and inclusivity, featuring a multi-faith room, more bathrooms, and improved accessibility. The London Symphony Orchestra will perform elsewhere during the closure, and the Barbican will offer alternative programming at other locations.
