Sandi Toksvig, Neil Morrissey And Hugo Speer Pledge Support And Name A Seat At The Soon To Reopen Alexandra Palace

Closed to the public for more than 80 years, Alexandra Palace Theatre will reopen in December 2018, following the completion of the East Wing Restoration Project. The ambitious three-year project will bring this hidden gem of London theatre back to life, ensuring the place of this historically significant building at the heart of the community for generations to come.

Members of the public are invited to support the restoration of the theatre through a fundraising campaign aimed at raising the final £1m needed. This is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to be part of the fabric of this extraordinary building.

All donations of £25 or over to the 'People's Palace' will be commemorated on a Donor Board in the East Court. A donation of £450 to the theatre restoration will also secure a permanent engraved named plaque on one of the 309 retractable seats in the theatre stalls, while a £900 donation will include the added permanence of a name plaque on one of the 323 fixed seats in the balcony.

Alexandra Park and Palace Charitable Trust is a registered charity. The charitable trust, established by an Act of Parliament in 1900, is responsible for maintaining and conserving the London landmark and 196 acres of Parkland. Every donation received goes directly towards the restoration of the Palace.
