Hammersmith Apollo Concert Venue

Located in Hammersmith, West London, the Hammersmith Apollo is one of London’s major performance spots. Originally a movie palace, the 1932 building morphed into a live-music venue in 1962. Music royalty like The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, and Bob Marley graced the stage, and through the years, big-name acts have booked performances here. Indie darlings like Gotye and Fleet Foxes, world-music artists, and comedians add diversity to the line-up at Hammersmith Apollo.

A capacity of 3,632 can be accommodated in the stalls and dress circle during standing-room performances at Hammersmith Apollo. The Art Deco interior and the moody lighting enhances the ornate décor – this is no dingy rock club.

The Hammersmith Apollo has several bars throughout, and drinks in plastic containers may be taken into the auditorium. Food is served in the lobby. Hammersmith is the nearest tube station. Ticketing at Hammersmith Apollo is handled through Tickemaster, and the venue’s box office.
