Alexandra Palace

Alexandra Palace

Located in the North of London, this historic entertainment venue sits within Alexandra Park and was originally created in 1873 as the counterpart to South London's Crystal Palace. By 1936, the BBC had taken partial residence as the venue became the home of the world's first high definition television service. Its radio and TV mast are still in use today and the building became listed in 1996, with many of the studios still exhibited to the public. Both the Great and West Hall are used for exhibitions, concerts and conferences.

Live Events at Alexandra Palace

The Palace will play host to a number of different events in the coming months, with concerts from the likes of Florence and the Machine, Frank Turner and Bring Me the Horizon, Classic Car shows, the William Hill World Darts Championship and the German Bier Festival. The venue is even home to an ice skating rink, pitch & putt golf course, a farmers' market and a boating lake, making it the perfect venue for a day out with the family.
