Playing with Fire: An Immersive Odyssey with Yuja Wang

Turn up the heat this autumn with Playing with Fire, a new concert experience at the Royal Festival Hall bringing together live piano performance and immersive VR. Featuring acclaimed pianist Yuja Wang, the production explores the relationship between music, technology and visual storytelling, creating an experience that goes beyond a traditional concert. It runs from October through January, making it an easy cultural addition to an autumn stay on the South Bank.

Just a short stroll from Sea Containers London, it’s a good excuse to make an evening of it — dinner by the river, a little culture, then home without having to cross half of London.
