Miracle on Leake Street

The Waterloo and South Bank community's free alternative Christmas party is back for the 6th year running, turning the famous Leake Street graffiti tunnel into South Bank's zaniest festive party venue for one night only on Thursday 5 December. 

Start warming up those vocal chords because this year’s Miracle on Leake Street (the ultimate FREE alternative Christmas party) will be using the acoustics of London’s longest graffiti tunnel to create a singalong like never before.

This year's afterwork party is centred around music, with 'Christmassaoke' courtesy of Lucky Voice who'll be bringing along Christmas soundtrack that everyone will want to sing along to (this party is all about the pop bangers rather than traditional carol singing!), with Rock Choir and Pink Singers on hand to drown out any off-key notes.

Also on the entertainment programme there's saucy cabaret courtesy of local drag star party host Pi The Mime, salsa dancing workshops, quirky wreath-making classes, giant board games, a craft market, a Spray Can Christmas Tree by Leake Street's artist-in-residence and even an appearance from the glittering London School of Samba!

Upgrade the cheesy Christmas round-robin and capture a festive photo with friends or colleagues, courtesy of You Photo studio - with (machine blown) snow flurries in the air and Leake Street's bold graffiti walls providing an iconic backdrop.

To keep you going through the evening there's also a great mix of pop-up bars and food trucks in the Leake Street tunnel and of course everyone's favourite underground Leake Street bars Passyunk Avenue, Draughts and Mamuska! will be joining in the festivities.

Entrance is free! Donations will be collected by cash or card through the night for the Waterloo Foodbank.
