This year’s free showcase of deaf and disabled artists has more live music, dance, street theatre, film and cabaret than ever before.

It will take place at Trafalgar Square, the National Theatre, the South Bank Centre, BFI Southbank, and other locations across the capital.

The event is produced by the Mayor of London with Greenwich+Docklands Festivals. It also coincides with Unlimited, the London 2012 Festival's showcase of disability artists.

As part of the Paralympics, BT London Live will be in Trafalgar Square hosting a jazz, blues and R&B event featuring singer Lizzie Emeh of Heart n Soul and Finnish sign song superstar Sign Mark.
