This iconic building, opened in 1871, is a testament to the Victorian era and was erected in memory of Queen Victoria’s Prince Consort. Its design, inspired by Roman amphitheatres, features a distinctive circular structure, covered by a glass and iron dome that has become an architectural icon. Throughout its history, it has hosted a variety of events, from classical music concerts to important meetings and sporting competitions.

The interior of this venue is equally impressive, featuring a grand organ which, at the time, was one of the largest in the world. The venue’s acoustics, although they have been the subject of controversy and adjustments over the years, contribute to the unique experience of live performances. Furthermore, it is known for hosting the annual Proms, a series of classical music concerts culminating in the famous ‘Last Night’, characterised by its festive and patriotic atmosphere.

This venue has not only been a temple to music and the arts, but has also witnessed scientific and technological advances, having hosted conferences and exhibitions that have marked milestones in history. Its cultural and social significance has established it as a meeting place for significant events, attracting visitors and artists from all over the world.
