The Royalties Copenhagen Talent Academy is coming to London, bringing together young creatives from diverse disciplines to explore how music, events and other creative expressions can shape public spaces, foster communities and enhance urban life.
Placemaking transforms urban spaces into vibrant hubs through music and other cultural expressions. Events and creative experiences activate public spaces, fostering safety, belonging and inspiration. By involving local communities, these initiatives reflect the area’s heritage while addressing challenges and unlocking potential. They also create opportunities to collaborate with partners and sponsors, driving lasting cultural impact and enriching the London Heritage Quarter.
London Heritage Quarter are proud to be partnering with Volcano to launch Royalties London, a pilot project education programme designed for passionate young Londoners aged 18 to 30. The programme aims to find new ways to make the London Heritage Quarter area more attractive, inclusive and engaging. Through workshops, expert-led sessions and real-world projects, participants will gain practical experience in branding, project management and business strategy.

Why Take Part?

You’ll explore ways to create a lasting impact in the area improving the sense of safety, belonging, and inspiration and leave your mark on the future of London Heritage Quarter.
