A disused tunnel on Leake Street once used by the Eurostar, under Waterloo station. Organized by the very famous and controversial British artist Banksy, the festival included the most important protagonists of international street art. ![]() The Cans Festival 2008 is a street art festival that took place in London, in the Waterloo area, on the weekend of May 3rd to 5th, 2008.
