Eventim Apollo (Hammersmith Apollo) 2026

EVENTIM APOLLO · HAMMERSMITH

Hammersmith Art Deco Landmark

Standing on Queen Caroline Street directly opposite Hammersmith Broadway in west London, the Eventim Apollo was designed by Robert Cromie and opened on 28 March 1932 as the Gaumont Palace cinema, with original seating for almost 3,500. A Grade II*-listed example of British Art Deco, it features a vast fan-shaped auditorium and a 1932 Compton theatre organ that remains in place and was fully restored in 2007.

Renamed the Hammersmith Odeon in 1962, it became one of Britain's most storied rock-and-pop venues and the home of countless career-defining live recordings — David Bowie's farewell to Ziggy Stardust (3 July 1973), Motörhead's No Sleep 'til Hammersmith, Kate Bush's Before the Dawn residency. After further name changes and a 2012–13 refurbishment under AEG and Eventim, it reopened on 7 September 2013 as the Eventim Apollo.
