About this event
The V&A's London Design Festival strand stays up through to mid-October, scattering commissioned installations through the museum's galleries, stairwells and courtyard so that finding them becomes the point. Free, and best done in the late Friday opening when the museum stays open until 22:00.
Why we picked it
The design festival programme is the one time of year the V&A's architecture is used as a stage; it costs nothing and runs across most of the window.
