Power of Summer

Battersea Power Station will this week launch its annual Power of Summer programme, a series of fun summer activities including outdoor screenings of Wimbledon and a selection of movies, comedy nights and children’s games all to be enjoyed at Circus West Village, London’s newest riverside quarter which is now home to over 1,000 residents.

The summer programme offers a glimpse of the exciting things still to come at Battersea Power Station, which will become an entirely new town centre for London comprising thousands of new homes (available to buy now), offices, shops, restaurants, cafes, bars and open public space.

Sports fans will this summer be able to relax in deckchairs on the riverwalk with the iconic Power Station in the backdrop as they enjoy the best of Wimbledon on the big screens al fresco.

Visitors will also be able to enjoy their favourite movies riverside on a sunny afternoon, with matinee showings of Hollywood classics including Breakfast at Tiffany’s, Some Like It Hot and Singin’ in the Rain, on from 26 – 29 June at 2pm daily.
