Dazzling display: Eternal Sundown by Mads Vegas, which returns for another year
(Picture: John Sturrock)The gloom of January looks set to brighten this week as the third incarnation of the Battersea Power Station Light Festival begins.
Lighting up the banks of the Thames from this Thursday January 19, until March 5, a Sunday, the festival will see the recently-reopened development coloured by a dazzling array of artworks. The festival is free to attend and not ticketed; those keen to see the displays can simply turn up and wander around them. The pieces will be switched on at 8am each morning and will be off by 11pm, though some may switch off slightly earlier, at 10pm.
