About Barking Riverside

Barking Riverside is one of Europe's most exciting developments, providing London with thousands of new homes.

Set in a unique location on the Thames, it covers an area as large as Hyde Park. In 2022, a transport interchange hub opened, featuring architectural-led designs and sustainable urban solutions.

Discover this emerging neighbourhood that is redefining what good development looks like.

About Emerge East

Emerge East Festival returns this September, celebrating creativity, community and nature at Barking Riverside.
Overlooking London’s iconic River Thames, Barking Riverside is one of Europe's largest and most exciting residential developments, and home to a diverse and active community.

Taste ethnic home-cooked food, browse local traders and independent makers at the Emerging Makers Market, explore the area's unique ecology through a Wildlife and Wellbeing Trail, enjoy the feel-good benefits of deep heat with a pop-up riverside sauna, and soak up unspoilt views of the Thames while having a freshly made cocktail.
