Alexandra Palace

Spend a day at Alexandra Palace and enjoy green spaces, live performances and plenty of food and drink in this leafy setting.

Alexandra Palace is set in 196 acres of parkland, where you can relax and make the most of the stunning views or try one of the many activities on offer.

There’s pitch and putt, pedalos and rowing boats for hire at the boating lake and tree-top adventures to be had at Go Ape. At the ice rink, you can learn to skate or soak up some high-energy excitement at an ice hockey match. There are seasonal ice discos to get you in the festive mood and you can refuel at the Ice Café.

The restored Victorian theatre offers a varied programme of theatre, concerts, comedy, opera and dance.

Look out for outdoor festival events in the summer where bands, comedians and actors perform against a backdrop of panoramic views across the city.
