Happy Streets is a free, family-friendly festival on and around Thessaly Road in Nine Elms, celebrating the completion of the redesigned Thessaly Road Bridge. Yinka Ilori’s striking new artwork on the bridge – commissioned by Wandsworth Council in partnership with the London Festival of Architecture – explores the theme of happiness through a wonderful use of colour.

Inspired by this, the festival is packed with opportunities to try out anything from hula hooping and pizza-making to beatboxing and gardening. Follow a giant puppet around the neighbourhood, take to the streets with a marching band, and be amazed by the skills of circus artists. There are also quieter moments to think about what happiness means to you and to learn more about the trees and plants on our doorstep that bring a welcome bit of nature into our busy, urban lives.

So smash a piñata, dance a Happy Dance, watch some virtual reality theatre, scramble through a cardboard city, or simply enjoy some tea and cake while you soak up the atmosphere!
