April 2026: This spring, King’s Cross unveils Super Nature, a vibrant celebration of art and activity in a neighbourhood where nature, culture and everyday life meet. Londoners can explore thought-provoking artwork, FREE family activities, hands-on workshops and independent markets across King’s Cross’s network of parks, canals and public squares, with Super Nature reflecting how culture, creativity and the natural world coexist. King’s Cross’s transformation in recent years has created one of central London’s most significant new urban green networks and Super Nature brings that to life through art, play and community.
Designed for families, locals and curious city explorers alike, Super Nature reflects a growing appetite for experiences that slow people down, reconnect them with nature and offer moments of discovery in the everyday city. Visitors are encouraged to take their time exploring the neighbourhood, stumble upon the unexpected and discover what makes King’s Cross so rich and varied all year-round.
Dandelions Always Return: Earth Day 2026 installation
From Saturday 18 April, Super Nature will host a striking new art installation in Granary Square: a woven pavilion by MTArt artist Delphine Dénéréaz, transforming a domestic house into a joyful, nature filled structure where giant woven dandelions and cascading fabric forests invite visitors to rethink what “wild” really means.
