RA Lates
Experience the RA after dark for themed, immersive nights of creativity, ideas and entertainment, inspired by our exhibitions.
Each exhibition has its own special one-off RA Late, where you can witness the Royal Academy magically transformed as we host an ever-changing line-up of curated entertainment.

The eclectic programme of RA Lates has included a nine-metre inflatable cosmic installation, themed supper clubs, UV Garden of Eden life-painting, Klezmer dancing, Pollock-inspired paint splattering, gold-leaf makeovers, robotic displays and a cocktail party with “Peggy Guggenheim” – all bringing the world of our exhibitions to life for a unique and unforgettable Saturday night.
