Alexandra Palace

This place has an absolutely beautiful view, a well maintained park and artists all over creating works of art where they don't mind you staying and watching. Inside the venue is just as breathtaking, I went for the Knit and Stitch show, my first and I was impressed with the lay out first of all. The Isles were not tight and stalls were together in the same category. Yes the food and drink was a bit pricey but there was lots of places to sit and have your own food. I love how small details of the history remained.

I have worked with artists at Ally Pally over the years and also been as a punter both during the day and at night although I think it's more impressive at night. Such an iconic building which deserves to be given a thorough overhaul cosmetically to bring it back to it's former glory especially as it sits on the highest point in London. A great venue to go if you prefer a standing gig rather than sitting down with a good choice of food and drink options. Not been to the ice rink but have heard it's good too.

Great venue for a music gig, although it was much larger than I had expected, so could only watch the band in the screens. However, I loved the whole place and the bar areas were well run and fab!

Good venue for a gig, saw The The here and Matt Johnson and the band were utterly superb, with a great two part set. Venue is standing only, making exit and access harder, so a 15min intermission was problematic. Bit of a queue to exit the car park, but expected.

Amazing venue and soundscape. Staff are very efficient and well organised, so entry was swift and hassle free and crowds were managed well. Can get very busy inside, and the smoking area gets ram packed. Lots of overpriced food stalls inside. Self serve water made me unwell. Interpol were great as usual.

Excellent venue for so many events. Great indoor space with amazing sound system and lighting. Indoor food stalls open late are a massive plus. Been for the red bull soap box race in the summer too which was great!

A favourite place in north London. The view all the way to the Shard is spectacular- and a current (2024) highlight is the art work “by the people” which depicts Ally Pally using photos of past and present people who have played a role in- big or small- in the peoples palace history. Just beautiful.

I just wanted to park up and enjoy the view over London it commands, which are quite stunning at night and take a quiet moment. It's unfortunate that since covid, the roadside parking has been closed by ugly concrete and steel anti parking deployments. I had to mount the pavement to park to enjoy the before mentioned views. The pictures aren't very good but I did enjoy the taking and the quiet moment.
