contributed by Marieke_Mannens

The building is designed by award-winning architects Herzog & de Meuron. Purpose-built for dance training, it is the largest and best equipped contemporary dance school in Europe. The fully accessible building supports the needs of dance with specialist facilities. By day the building's semi-translucent cladding allows traces of dance and movement to be visible through the walls. By night, the building becomes a coloured beacon with light and movemnt spilling out illuminating the surrounding area. Only certain sections (cafe, pilates studio and health suite) of the building are open to the public on a daily basis. However, they offering weekly guided tours, for more information or to book a tour see the guided tours section or contact the External Relations team tours@laban.org

Laban does not have a street number – they are just based on Creekside (the street name). You really can’t miss it!

Project is not public!
Opening hours The cafe and other public areas of the building are open 9.00pm - 5.00pm Monday to Friday. There are weekly tours of the whole building for more information see website Laban. Please do not come to the building expecting to be able to see the whole building as the students are the main priority and Laban needs to keep the disruption to a minimum, thanks for you understanding.
How to get there? The Docklands Light Railway (DLR) offers a frequent service to Cutty Sark station which is a few minutes walk from Laban. The DLR joins to the London Underground at Monument / Bank (Central, Circle and District Lines), Shadwell (East London Line), Canary Wharf (Jubilee Line) and Stratford (Central Line). At Cutty Sark turn right out of the station and right again on to Creek Road. Take the second left after the bridge, Creekside and Laban is a on your left. (10 min walk)
