December 2024One of the best venues in the UK. Has a huge space to explore. Restaurants available and bars. Also a big gift shop and small rough trade record store. The main arena is an mazing space for live music. Sound is perfect. Staff friendly and a clean space. Plenty of opportunities for relaxing. Canteen and service there were also very good. Check listings as many different types of events. Cost of things was generally reasonable for London. Worth a visit to see the internal lake and space.

January 2025We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to the Barbican Centre and the Barbican Conservatory. Prior to my visit, I had read about the Barbican Centre and was eager to experience the essence of Brutalism. I was truly amazed by the scale and authenticity of the architecture. The Barbican Conservatory is a hidden gem; the greenery in the heart of London is truly precious. The combination of residential, commercial, artistic, and cultural elements, alongside nature, creates an intriguing area for exploration.

February 2025We went to watch the Royal Symphony Orchestra perform, and what an experience! The Barbican centre itself is a brilliant piece of architecture and wonderful place to just go and see and hang out. A couple of bars and cafes to visit, library, gardens, art gallery and a lovely water garden! We enjoyed a couple of cocktails from the Martini bar before the show. Plenty of amenities, toilets and cloakrooms. Disabled access all around and plenty or staff about to help on show night. It did get busy though on show night so expect a wait at the bar like anywhere else. However we returned the morning after to really take it in, and the place was pretty much empty. It was nice to have a quiet wander to explore and have a coffee.

February 2025First visit, went to Ennio Morricone 100 years,of film music concert, I was very impressed with the theatre, fabulous acoustics, seats with plenty of legroom ,very easy access to the seats. Staff were friendly and helpful. Had a great time ! I got lost finding the centre, and found my way in via the Waterside area, thus I saw plenty of the so called brutalist architecture, I guess residents get used to it !

December 2024I was treated to a guided tour of the ubiquitous Barbican Village. A community within the city of London with its very unique architecture, which is totally out of place compared to the classical and modern mix of buildings in the city. It is virtually hidden from sight as most tourists would not even notice its existence as its perimeter is a bit fortress like plain outward facing flank walls with ally like entrance points that appear to lead nowhere interesting. It is a rather brutal and monolithic assembly of towers, blocks, and open spaces primarily of residential properties with arts and cultural complex at its heart. It's worth seeing only to appreciate how cold and heartless architecture can be. I would say don't do it again!
