The London Festival of Architecture 2017 will take place from 1–30 June, featuring exhibitions and installations, talks and debates, open studios, tours, family activities, film screenings, student shows and architecture evenings which focus on the importance of architecture and design in London today.

The London Festival of Architecture (LFA) is Europe's biggest annual architecture festival. It was founded by former director Peter Murray in 2004. Up until 2006 the festival was only held once every two years and was previously known as the London Architecture Biennale. From 2008 onwards, the festival took place on an annual basis.  The event has grown exponentially year on year and now looks forward to its biggest year yet in 2017 with Tamsie Thomson on board as Director of the London Festival of Architecture 2017.

The theme for the 2017 London Festival of Architecture is ‘memory’. Contributors, including architects, academics and the public itself have been asked to bear this in mind as they reflect on London’s rich architectural heritage. Last year’s Festival theme was ‘community’.
