We Are Warriors

We Are Warriors is an immersive sound and light installation, described by audiences as 'a wonderground'. 'Awe-inspiring', 'utterly raw' and 'heartbreakingly beautiful', this subterranean constellation of women’s, girls’, trans and non-binary voices carves collective remembrance, resistance and care from the shadows. Reclaiming a city's darkest spaces, We Are Warriors ignites neglected sites with hundreds of flickering lights, each placed in tribute to someone who has been lost or silenced.

Upon arrival, you will be invited to take part by creating and placing a light of your own to honour a silenced voice, joining a global chorus. As the installation travels and evolves, it continues to transform dark spaces into sanctuaries, inviting audiences everywhere to push the dark away.

*PLEASE NOTE THAT LAST ENTRY TO THE INSTALLATION IS 6.30PM*

We Are Warriors consists of hundreds of LED lights and a 25-minute soundscape. The Cab Road Tunnel can be cold and has an uneven floor surface; please bring warm clothes and comfortable footwear.
