Lovely concert venue with great acoustics. Student performances are of a very high standard.
Nice place for classical evening lovers. Love the fact that you don't have to queue for ages during breaks for drinks/snacks due to choice of 3-4 bars at least. Definitely recommended.
Give a try the lunchtime recitals, lots of young, promising talent for £10.
One of my favourite places to see live music - so much atmosphere
Get there before start time , especially for classical performances. Late entry may not be possible/ will annoy those already seated. One of the most pleasurable places to watch live music in London.
A must do experience in London! A magnificent concert venue. If you’re not dining at the on site restaurant, there are snacks & drinks.
The acoustics here were once so bad, it was said this was the only venue where a composer could be sure of hearing his work twice. It was corrected in 1969 by putting diffusing discs on the ceiling.
Built as a memorial to Queen Victoria's husband in 1871, the Royal Albert Hall's vast rotunda was once described by the monarch as looking like 'the British constitution'. Read more.
A good place to meet friends before a day or night out in London. The interior is very spacious and the outside bar is great overlooking the river.
Top tip. Head right on up to the top floor for gorgeous balcony views and lots of tables for freelancer types.
London’s only post-war Grade I listed building was opened in 1951 for the Festival of Britain. The hall officially reopened after its renovation in 2007 with a performance by rock legends Motorhead.
Stunning building inside and friendly bar staff. Highly recommended.
An absolute gem of a music/dance venue for both Brockley and London as a whole. A sequence from Avengers 2 Age of Ultron was filmed here.
One of the bartender looks like Ian Mackellen! 😱😁
One of my favourite please in London🎯 fantastic atmosphere🔝
Da Crawleyz!
The LSO's music education centre and venue. We put on lunchtime concerts, early years workshops, choirs, and a great series of eclectic evening shows. Also available to hire for dinners, receptions...
We have our own Café downstairs in LSO St Luke's too! There's a full lunch service before Lunchtime Concerts, and for evening concerts there's snacks and drinks before and during.
Amazing 18th century church. I attended #smashingconf 2018 here.
Don't forget you can have dinner before a show in the cafe downstairs!
On the restaurant: They have vegan sorbets but hardly any vegan options. Also, my vegetarian risotto had parmesan on it which I was told was vegetarian explicitely(?). Lovely staff!
Great coffee and cake in the crypt
Great place when the sun is shining and it's Pimms O' Clock! Gets very busy in the summertime so get there early for a good spot
Best place for free wifi in the Southbank Centre.
Free wifi but it needs a serious boost
Good views even from the Circle stalls. Bar is pricey, but that's too be expected. Good sound, great for stand up and just across the road from Hammersmith tube
Opened as the Gaumont Palace cinema in 1932, this music and comedy venue has hosted everyone who’s anyone over the years, including The Beatles, Springsteen, Bowie, Johnny Cash and Bob Marley.
Chuck berry was top notch here back in 64 ! seen some of the best live music at the apollo! Read more.
Refurbished in 2018 the Purcell Room is a music venue that has a great bar for hanging out in during the day.
The little sister of the little sister! The smallest of the three Southbank venues hosts solo recitals, chamber music and spoken word events.
The smallest of the three Southbank music venues specialises in chamber music, solo performances, mime and spoken word. It has a capacity of 370.
its gorgeous when your drunk
Ridiculously overpriced beer, even by London standards.
Great venue, spacious and very good looking.
6 minute well sign-posted walk from Barbican Underground.
If you are late for a student recital they won't let you in!
Highly recommend for gathering with friend and family after seeing the art exhibition. Nice atmosphere and enough sofas to relax on.
With 21 acres, this is the largest single-run arts centre in the world. The Royal Festival Hall, Hayward Gallery, and Queen Elizabeth Hall form the backdrop to the hustle and bustle of markets.
If you are a frequent visitor the attractions at Southbank or neighbouring venues. Consider getting a membership which gives you access to the "Members Bar" at Level 6 of Royal Festival Hall. Stunning
Lovingly made in NYC, CHI, SEA & LA
