Queen Mary Venues - Mile End

Great Hall, The People's Palace

Nearest station:Mile End (0.5 km)(go to map)778

The Great Hall at The People's Palace is a stunning auditorium for hire in London.

The People's Palace is home to the unique art-deco venue - The Great Hall. Located in the heart of east London and originally opened in the 1930s, the Great Hall has seen the likes of Damon Albarn, Fleetwood Mac, Iron Maiden and the Rolling Stones grace its stage, which boasts one of the largest in London.

Full restored and reopening in September 2012, these refurbishments are the most sympathetic of the various restoration schemes over the years.

The purpose was to restore historic elements of the recently Grade II listed building as well as to make it more comfortable, with up-to-date sound, lighting, audio-visual and theatre systems.

In the Great Hall, the original 1930s colour scheme was discovered under layers of paint that had built up over the years and was recreated.

The Hall's wooden floorboards have been cleaned and, using old photographs, the decorative lantern in the centre of the hall has been recreated.
