Apple Music to Open State-of-the-Art Live Music Venue in London

Apple Music has announced it will be opening a brand new state-of-the-art music venue in London.

The new space, named Apple Music Hall, will open at the capital’s Battersea Power Station where the company has its London headquarters.

An opening date or news of the first performing act has not yet been confirmed.

The 600-capacity space features the opportunity for artists to perform live, record the show in Spatial Audio in a broadcast-ready mix, and capture multi-camera video directly from the venue and its studios.

Apple Music Hall features a mixture of standing and seated areas, and the 38-foot-wide stage can be reconfigured for traditional front-facing sets or more in-the-round experiences.

The venue is also equipped with a 48-speaker spatial sound system.

The building operates as a full production facility with two recording and mix studios built to professional standards.

“The venue is also hardwired for 16 or more cameras that feed a purpose-built broadcast control room with infrastructure that supports iPhone video capture running in parallel alongside traditional broadcast cameras,” according to a press release.

Apple Music Radio’s London-based hosts and shows will also broadcast live out of the space in Battersea.

Battersea Power Station, previously a coal-fired power station on the bank of the River Thames, has a longstanding connection to music.

The building featured on the artwork for Pink Floyd ’s 1977 album Animals , which shows an inflatable pink pig suspended between the four towers.

Mumford & Sons performed a concert in the grounds of the park for Apple’s 50th anniversary celebration in March.

In 2014, Sir Elton John performed a private concert at the venue to mark the building’s residential and commercial redevelopment.
