UNBOXED: Creativity in the UK is a celebration of creativity taking place across the UK in 2022, designed to reach millions and bring people together. It features free large-scale events, installations and globally accessible digital experiences in the UK’s most ambitious showcase of creative collaboration.

UNBOXED features ten major multi-site and digital creative projects that share new ideas and possibilities for the future. Events and activities take place from 1 March to 2 October 2022 – from the Outer Hebrides to Southampton and from Omagh to Swansea, and across traditional and online media.

The ten projects are the result of collaborations across science, technology, engineering, arts and maths, bringing new ideas for our shared futures. They range from the transformation of a decommissioned North Sea offshore platform in Weston-super-Mare to a monumental forest garden created in the centre of Birmingham, and from an artwork experienced with your eyes closed to Wales propelled thirty years into the future.
