Fountains

The fountains are currently switched on daily 10.00-23.00

The fountains will be switched off from 20.00 on Friday 10 May, they will return on Tuesday 21 May. 

The Edmond J. Safra Fountain Court is at the heart of Somerset House - a dignified courtyard with a mischievous streak.

The array of jets dance in an orchestrated sequence, with added coloured lighting at night - a refreshing surprise on a warm summer day.

The fountains are normally switched on for spring and summer months, except when events take place in the courtyard which require them to be off; these will be mentioned on this page. To confirm you can see the fountain displays on your visit please call 020 7845 4600 (Mon-Fri, 10.00-17.00) or email info@somersethouse.org.uk.
