Yinka Ilori Creative Courts Small Image copy 1 Update

Yinka Ilori designs Canary Wharf's first ever basketball court which is set to transform Bank Street Park. Unique to the Estate, the space will exert a mesmerising display of colours and striking patterns when it launches free to the public later in May. The basketball court is the first of its kind to open at Canary Wharf and has been specifically designed for the 3×3 style of play, where three on each side compete using just one basketball hoop. The creative works add to Canary Wharf’s ever-growing portfolio of public art that now features over 75 permanent works by over 50 world-renowned artists and crafts people. The showcase is one of the UK’s largest collections of public art and is all free to enjoy in the calming green spaces on the Estate.

The court is open daily between 12-9pm.

Soon to launch a limited edition run of basketballs to be launched here.
