Royal Albert Hall is one of London's great Victorian landmarks, opened in 1871 as part of the memorial landscape created for Prince Albert. Its circular brick-and-terracotta exterior is a South Kensington fixture, and the interior remains one of Britain's best-known concert halls.
The hall is closely associated with the BBC Proms, but its programme ranges well beyond classical music. Visitors can come for a performance, look for guided tours, or combine it with the nearby Kensington museums and Hyde Park.
