Renowned for its striking brutalist architecture, the Barbican is also the largest performing arts centre of its kind in Europe. The centre has something to offer for every taste: from classical to contemporary music concerts, to theatre performances, film screenings and even art exhibitions. It is even the home of Britain's prestigious Royal Shakespeare company and London Symphony Orchestra. No trip to the Centre would of course be complete without taking the chance to dine in one of its three restaurants. The centre is never short of inspiration for new and original exhibitions,so be sure to check out what's on during your next visit to London!
