How new tube map celebrates London's grassroots music scene
Available for over a year
London's distinctive Tube map has been reimagined to celebrate the capital's grassroots music scene as part of a new campaign. Mayor Sir Sadiq Khan and Transport for London (TfL) have joined with music industry and media leaders to launch London Creates. The capital-wide initiative aims to shine a spotlight on the capital's 179 venues, which helped launch the careers of stars such as Chappell Roan, Coldplay, Charli XCX and Noah Kahan, City Hall said. The special edition Grassroots Tube Map, created by TfL, features lines turned into electric cables and named after songs, albums, artists, record labels, venues and genres.
