Eurostar
Changing track: a series of events will mark Eurostar's switch from Waterloo to St Pancras

All change at St Pancras

Adam Hill, This is London
29 Oct 2007


A ten-day festival marking Eurostar's switch from Waterloo to St Pancras station will feature art, music, illumination, dance, short films and food. The mixture of free and ticketed events has an Anglo-French flavour.

Highlights include Weird and Wonderful, which features one-off collaborations between the London Sinfonietta and electronic artists.

The festival's centrepiece is L'Arrivee, offering most people's first glimpse of the new-look St Pancras station, and boasting a gypsy band in what is described as a "culinary music event". Other draws include Quentin Blake creating an enormous artwork on the theme of travel, plus more live music and theatre.

And if that isn't enough, there will also be the longest champagne bar in Europe.
