Description
Experience new heights and new views with Summit at Alexandra Palace. Climb the UK’s highest roof walk and enjoy amazing vistas across London, up to 25 miles away. Led by an expert tour guide in a small group, this experience delivers a fascinating journey through over 150 years of history paired with unmatched 360-degree views across London.
Your experience begins inside The East Court before moving to the historic Rose Window Balcony where you will complete a short safety briefing and be fitted with a full-body harness. Once securely attached, you will follow a specially designed route up onto the roof. Enjoy stories about the venue’s rich history as you climb.
You will reach the roof apex and the Angel of Plenty statue, where the views open to a 350-degree panorama of London. On a clear day, you can see St Paul’s Cathedral, Canary Wharf, The Shard, the London Eye, Premier League football stadiums, and so much more. Pause, soak it in and enjoy this once-in-a-lifetime experience.
The venue is set within 196 acres of parkland looking over London, making it easy to turn your tour into a full day out. Visitors can explore the grounds, visit the indoor ice rink, or grab food and drinks at the on-site cafés, bar, and pub. Reaching the site is simple, with fast connections by train or tube from across London, alongside ample on-site parking for those arriving by car.
