Presented in partnership with the Royal Albert Hall one of the UK’s most treasured and magical buildings, LOAD is yet another ground breaking arts project from the Daydream Network. Over the space of 4 days the walls of the loading bay area, have been transformed by a team of 9 artists from the Wonderland Collective, depicting the 138-year history of this world famous venue.

The 10ft high murals, across a 1,125 square meter space are a graphical journey through some of the most memorable moments in the Hall’s existence, the heritage of the Proms and a dedication to the iconic musicians to have graced the Hall’s legendary stage, this includes; Jimi Hendrix, Pavarotti, Eric Clapton, The Killers, Frank Sinatra, Bob Dylan, Jimi Hendrix, David Bowie, Oasis, Cream and Dame Shirley Bassey to name just a few.

LOAD is the first ever event that will allow the public to experience the underground workings of the building, as it is used solely as an artist and production entrance. With approx 350 shows and events being held at the Hall each year, the artwork will welcome the thousands of individuals who make it all happen for years to come.

Throughout the last 138 years the Royal Albert Hall has been host to an unprecedented number of cultural milestones, LOAD fuses together this heritage and classic ambiance of the building with the recognition and signification of a contemporary grass roots culture. The artwork incorporates the bold and beautiful techniques and styles that have evolved from graffiti and street art; with the main focus to produce a visual masterpiece that will stand the test of time and trends, a homage to the history and a symbol of the future for this cultural landmark.
