Already home to hundreds of shops, bars and restaurants, Battersea Power Station is set to launch London's first purpose-built immersive exhibition space in Spring 2025.
Working with NEON, specialists in large-scale experiential exhibitions, the state-of-the-art venue will showcase two major exhibitions each year. NEON develops each experience in-house, delivering exhibitions across the globe that draw in over a million visitors annually with their unique and immersive storytelling.
This new home, at Battersea Power Station, will showcase exhibitions from NEON's collection, such as Machu Picchu, the Golden Empires of Peru, which is rumored to be the opening exhibition, with Jurassic World: The Exhibition, expected to follow.
Over the years Battersea Power Station has firmly established itself as a hub for arts and entertainment, making it a fitting location for this new venue. Back in 2024, the area was voted as one of the 20 ‘Best Cultural Spots’ by National Geographic, and this new exhibition space will only cement this reputation.
NEON's CEO and Executive Chairman, Ron Tan, 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.’
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.’
As part of the venue's opening, NEON will be gifting 5,000 free tickets to local schools, as well as donating 1,000 tickets to charities, youth groups, and local community organisations in a bid to make culture accessible to all.
