A redeveloped, sustainable Amphitheatre

Success Stories
A greener, more inclusive environment for all.

Our much-loved and redeveloped Amphitheatre at Paddington Central is now open bringing a brand new performance and events space plus a greener, more inclusive environment for all.

Created in consultation with the local community and arriving back just in time for the sunshine, come down and explore the new Amphitheatre which will now give Paddington Central:

An exciting new performance space

With a larger ‘stage’ area for events and more seats, the Amphitheatre is set to become a year-round destination for people to relax and enjoy culture, music, entertainment and well-being pop-ups.

Improved accessibility and inclusivity

The new ramp and central staircase alongside handrails and textured paving means the space will be easier to access with better lighting.

A greener space for all

We’ve added new trees and sun-loving, resilient plants plus a beautiful water feature that reflects our canalside location. The addition of 40+ colourful perennial plant species will help to reduce pollution, improve air quality, and increase biodiversity and climate change resilience.

A more sustainable future

We’ve improved the Amphitheatre by using Earth Friendly Concrete to reduce embodied carbon by 79% (this is equivalent to 758 single-car journeys from Paddington Central to Land’s End and 12 return flights between London and Hong Kong).

A place of calm

The new design gives people a communal area for lunch and after work but also one with more intimate quiet spaces where they can find pockets of reflection during their day.

The new Amphitheatre will also support people’s active lifestyles and give a place where people can relax, work, learn and where children can play. We can’t wait to see you there.

Greener Spaces

Every single decision we make, every day, is made with our environmental impact in mind. From how we design and construct our new buildings, to how we refit and repurpose our pre-existing ones. From the smart tech we use to make our buildings as efficient as possible, to the way we make sure none of our waste goes to landfill.

And it’s an ongoing journey. We’re always looking for new ways to progress further – and we work hand-in-hand with our customers, suppliers and partners to help them do the same.
