"The cash will go towards work on the roof, drainage and technical systems of the Royal Festival Hall, in a bid to safeguard the building for the future and improve conditions for both audiences and performers."
"Most of the London funding - £26.8 million - is being distributed through the Creative Foundations Fund, which targets urgent infrastructure needs at theatres, galleries and performance spaces."
"A further £1.4 million is being shared between two London museums through the Museum Estate and Development Fund, with the London Transport Museum receiving just under £1 million for roof repairs."
The Southbank Centre is allocated £10 million for essential repairs, focusing on the Royal Festival Hall's roof, drainage, and technical systems. This funding is part of a broader £30 million initiative aimed at supporting cultural venues, museums, and libraries in London. The funding is sourced from the government's £1.5 billion Arts Everywhere Fund, benefiting 24 organizations in London. Other notable recipients include the Royal Opera House and Theatre Royal Stratford East, with additional funds directed towards improving accessibility in various venues and libraries.
