Opportunity for APAC’s Student and Academic members to come together for a special archive tour hosted by the Royal Albert Hall archives.
This special visit will be a chance to explore rarely seen curiosities with the archivists from the Royal Albert Hall, London.
The Royal Albert Hall Archive collects, preserves, and provides access to historical collections which document the venue’s evolution from the 19th century to the present. From the Suffragettes to Lady Gaga – the archive collections contain endless stories on a wide variety of topics including sport, politics, fashion, religion, commemoration and of course, music.
Housed in the Archive is the largest concert hall collection in the world, home to an internationally significant assortment of documents, artworks and objects. The two main collections are the event collection and the building and institutional collection. In addition, the Archive cares for an extensive art collection and smaller complementary collections.
