Beyond the Main Stage at Royal Albert Hall

Beyond the Main Stage – Family Highlights This Summer

Step beyond the famous auditorium and discover a whole world of family-friendly experiences hidden within the Royal Albert Hall.

Beyond the Main Stage series explores a varied and dynamic programme of events taking place in the Elgar Room, an intimate performance space, and elsewhere in the building, focusing on up-and-coming artists and left field experiences.

• Explore the Hall in a whole new way

Beyond the Main Stage opens up some of the Royal Albert Hall's most intimate and historic spaces, giving families the chance to experience music, storytelling and creativity up close.

• Perfect for younger children

From interactive storytelling and music sessions to engaging holiday activities, little ones can sing, move, play and discover the magic of live performance in a relaxed and welcoming environment.

• Hands-on musical adventures

Designed to spark curiosity and imagination, family events encourage children to participate rather than simply watch, making music accessible and fun for all ages.

• Discover hidden spaces inside an iconic venue

Many Beyond the Main Stage events take place in unique areas such as the Elgar Room and Door 3 Porch, offering a more intimate experience than a traditional concert setting.

• A great-value family day out

Families can enjoy high-quality arts experiences in one of London's most famous cultural landmarks, with events specifically designed to be welcoming and accessible to young audiences.

The programme is all about introducing children to live music, creativity and performance in a fun, inclusive environment that encourages exploration and participation.
