The Eventim Apollo in Hammersmith, long known as the Hammersmith Odeon, is one of London's most storied live venues, a beautifully restored 1930s Art Deco theatre that has hosted decades of legendary concerts. Seating around 5,000, it strikes a sweet spot between intimacy and scale.

What to see and do
The Apollo hosts a packed calendar of music across every genre, plus comedy, and the occasional seated or standing show depending on the act. The riverside and pubs of Hammersmith are nearby for before and after.
