While Tate Modern is closed, Uniqlo Tate Lates: Night In is bringing an artist-led programme direct to you on Friday 3 July from 19.00–21.00 BST. There will be two streams on this page on the night:

  • Stream 1 is a mix of artist talks and workshops
  • Stream 2 is a combination of music and film

A full line-up of both streams are below so you can curate your night. If you want to see any content you missed on either stream both videos will be available until Friday 3 July.
