About this event
Greenwich+Docklands International Festival opens its 2026 edition in Woolwich with 360, a large-scale outdoor dance ritual by French choreographer Mehdi Kerkouche. Built around the festival's WE MOVE theme of resilience and collective momentum, it puts a mass of bodies in motion in a public square — the sort of ambitious free commission London rarely gets outside this festival.
Why we picked it
The headline opening of London's biggest free outdoor arts festival, from a choreographer with real international standing, and it costs nothing to stand and watch.
