Street art and the Royal Albert Hall aren't words normally found in the same sentence, which is what makes LOAD such an interesting proposition. Global arts collective Daydream Network takes over the Victorian venue's subterranean loading bay for one day only, filling the 1,125m2 industrial space with giant graffiti murals. The works — provided by artists from stencil, freehand and photorealist backgrounds — explore landmarks in the venue's 138-year history, depicting the likes of the Suffragettes, Winston Churchill, Mohammed Ali, Jimi Hendrix and the Killers.
