Lumiere London

Lightening up London

The LCA Role

LCA handled the communications for Lumiere London at King's Cross in 2016 and 2018. As part of our role, we formed part of the London-wide comms team, pulled together to represent the different districts across London.

LCA positioned King's Cross to be the lead district for a number of media announcements, including the original launch announcement and the final location for the international media launch event. In 2018, LCA secured King's Cross to be the lead district to host a VIP press and influencer event, as well as location for pre-recorded footage issued globally – positioning King's Cross as one of the most important locations to visit as part of the festival, and building general awareness of the destination more widely to an international tourist audience.
