Symbol of the 'Festival Star', designed by Abram Games. The Festival of Britain was held from May to September 1951. The exhibition was aimed to be a demonstration of Britain's achievements in Arts, Science, Technology and Industrial Design. It occupied approximately 27 acres of the South Bank area of Waterloo and was part of a long regeneration plan for the area. The Royal Festival Hall was built as part of the exhibition complex.
