Overview

Tourists and locals pass through Piccadilly Circus every day, but few are aware of the station’s hidden history and long-forgotten artefacts. This behind-the-scenes tour takes you through secret doors into disused passages and lift shafts that have been closed to the public since 1929. Discover Edwardian architecture, hear stories of its role as a wartime shelter, and uncover the top-secret items still stored behind locked doors.

No getting lost: A guide is with you to navigate
