Cultural strategy
Launched in 2020, Heart of London’s Cultural Strategy brings together the London Plan, the cultural strategies of the Mayor of London and Westminster City Council, in addition to our Placeshaping and Destination strategies, to establish a comprehensive vision and mission that supports and enables the area’s stakeholders and external partners.
Destination marketing
To promote the area as a world-class destination, and the offering within it, we have created three digital marketing channels to amplify our message to a domestic and international audience. Using social media, websites and databases, we have created a powerful network that raises the profile of the area to investors, visitors and employees.

Art of London season
The Art of London season is a series of art initiatives and installations created with a view to driving footfall to London’s West End and elevating existing member events and activity. The season will showcase the West End as a destination to visit for an all-day experience, from events to dining to arts, culture, and entertainment.
Scenes in the Square
In February 2020, we launched an interactive trail of statues in the heart of Leicester Square. Now you can get ready to rediscover some of the nation’s best-loved characters and iconic film scenes as they’re brought to life in London’s home of film and entertainment.
Offering a free, must-see entertainment and film attraction, “Scenes in the Square” features highly recognisable classic and contemporary characters, each immortalised in interactive and expressive bronze statues, with some brought to life in the evening through lighting.
