A new exhibition space is due to open at Battersea Power Station this spring in what is being billed as the first of its kind in central London.
NEON said the space would be dedicated to “immersive entertainment and cultural exhibitions” including exhibitions such as Machu Picchu: The Golden Empires of Peru and Jurassic World: The Exhibition.
Ron Tan, CEO and Executive Chairman of NEON said: “We are thrilled to announce the opening of a brand-new exhibition space and look forward to bringing our world-renowned immersive experiences to Battersea Power Station, which has quickly established itself as a vibrant centre of creativity and community since the restored Power Station opened its doors to the public for the first time in history in October 2022.”
Battersea Power Station is home to over 150 shops, bars, restaurants and leisure venues.
It has vowed to host two unique exhibitions per year in a pledge to become a landmark venue, attracting visitors not only from London but the wider UK.
Sam Cotton, Head of Asset Management at Battersea Power Station Development Company, said: “The opening of NEON’s new exhibition space at Battersea Power Station supports our vision to deliver a vibrant centre for arts, culture, entertainment and community engagement.
“We are excited to see Londoners and visitors from further afield come together to enjoy these globally celebrated experiences and we’re delighted to open this exciting new exhibition space in the year that Wandsworth has been named The London Borough of Culture.”
Ahead of the opening, NEON will provide 5,000 complimentary tickets to local schools, allowing students to experience the exhibitions firsthand.
A further 1,000 free tickets will be offered to local charities, community organisations, and youth groups.
