Institute of Contemporary Arts Concerts 2025

I went to see a movie on Friday night with MUBI go, there were plenty of seats left. I wish I had arrived earlier as the bar had a great vibe, there were a few bands playing and it's a very cool space. Will come back to explore more!

An iconic exhibition space but never very obvious what's going on. I was invited to a specialist talk and had to be escorted to the area! Thanks

Lovely venue with a variety of art and cultural events and exhibitions. Special highlight is the bookstore which curates a lot of progressive / transgressive reads. Will open your mind.

They were screening for LFF2023. Non-allocated seating. Film was due to start at 20:30 but we were still in a huge queue, which looped around the bar (so people kept trying to move around or through us in order to purchase drinks) at 20:28: Film started late. Staff in the screen were friendly, but the person on reception/round desk in the doorway by the bookshop was very rude. A few people asked to make sure they were joining the correct queue (rather than collecting tickets or trying for returns) and she was very condescending and abrupt with us. Screen 1 itself was comfortable, clean, screen was high enough that there was a good view from where I sat half way back. Likely won't bother visiting again though.

Last visit to the ICA was 4 years ago, glad to see the center still open and thriving. Gallery, reading, performing and cafe space. Nice to sit and have a coffee, wine or snacks. Accessible restrooms.
