Alexandra Palace

Alexandra Palace

The iconic north London venue offers everything you need for an extraordinary event or great day out with the benefit of some of the best panoramic views of London.

Alexandra Park first opened in 1863 and has a rich history of extraordinary milestones. Check out our interactive timeline to find out more. 

Alexandra Palace opened in 1873, has survived two fires, hosted the first ever television broadcast and has seen millions of people experience extraordinary events for over the last 140 years! Take a look at our timeline to see some of the unbelievable events that have taken place at the Palace.

Ally Pally, as it is lovingly known, has an ambitious regeneration programme in progress to restore the Palace and open currently derelict areas of the site such as the Victorian theatre for the public to enjoy. 

Did you know that all the money that is generated by commercial activity in the park and palace goes back in to maintaining and restoring Ally Pally, to celebrate and share the past, deliver extraordinary experiences at present and regenerate for the future?
