    This place is an amazing venue for a rave. Should arrive earlier to take in the view and majestic space!

    One of the best places to visit in North. Enjoy amazing views of London from here. Grab a beer and sit in the grass outside.A beautiful building that hosts exhibitions/concerts and a small ice rink.

    During events, free parking is on a first come, first served basis. Street food venders have no extraction fan outlet, so the stench builds up in the hall and wafts into the main arena.

    Beautiful building and amazing views from the top! Check out the transmitter at the back, it was in a Doctor Who episode! Also, was great when SitC used to be here!

    Huge venue, great sound; if grabbing a bite beforehand, just remember that the food stands are only available *after* ticket checks.

    31 July: Go for a walk around the Palace and grounds, host to exhibitions and concerts, a pitch-and-putt golf course, a garden centre, a boating lake and a deer enclosure.

    One of the best live music venues in London. Always great sound and there's a street-food market before you enter the main area.

    Awesome venue for a gig. With the street food hall and the size of the great hall it feels like your at a festival.

    Great venue, if your at a gig and after a beer expect to wait several hours and rude staff at all bars

    3G coverage here is very limited. Put your phone on airplane, turn on wifi and then connect to AllyPallyFreeWifi. Fast, free & no login! Sometimes drops though...

    If you're short, go to the pillars. There's a ledge you can stand on, about 1ft high. Awesome.
