Cans Festival May 2008

 

Near Waterloo station there is a disused tunnel once used by taxis to pick up passengers from the now

defunct Channel Tunnel terminal. The Cans Festival (a play on the annual cinema fest in the French town

of Cannes), dedicated the old tunnel to an exhibition of street art,  Bamksy the graffiti artist, invited other

artists to join him for a stencil party. Thousands of people brought their own stencils with them.

Eurostar have agreed to leave the stencil work up in the tunnel until September 2008.
