The Royal Albert Hall, London

Besides having a featured role in the lyrics of "A Day in the Life" (“Now they know how many holes it takes to fill the Albert Hall”), Royal Albert Hall was the stage on which The Beatles played several times. On September 15, 1963, they shared the bill with the Rolling Stones. Queen Victoria built Royal Albert Hall as a memorial to her husband, Price Albert. The distinctive round building held its first concert in 1871. Royal Albert Hall today has 13 bars and 3 restaurants, so you can partake in a meal or cocktail before your show.
