The Bartlett Summer Show 2026
Over a thousand UCL architecture students present their year's work at the Bartlett's annual graduate show, open to the public from late June.
Location: UCL Bartlett School of Architecture, London
Date: 25 June 2026 to 12 July 2026
The Bartlett Summer Show is the annual public exhibition of work produced by students across UCL’s Bartlett School of Architecture throughout the academic year. The 2026 edition features projects from over 1,000 students at undergraduate and postgraduate level, displayed across the Bartlett campus and available online, spanning architecture, urban design, architectural history and theory.
The show functions as an important barometer of where emerging architectural thinking is headed, with student work typically engaging with the central questions of the profession well in advance of their formal entry into practice. Staff, visiting critics and external practitioners contribute to a programme of talks and events that run alongside the exhibition.
For architects, designers and studios actively looking to recruit, the Bartlett Summer Show is one of the most concentrated opportunities of the year to see the work of the next generation in context. The show is free and open to the public throughout its run from 25 June to 12 July.
