The Royal Albert Hall, an iconic venue in South Kensington, hosts a variety of family events throughout the year. From interactive shows and storytelling sessions for toddlers to music competitions, there’s always something exciting happening.
In fact, one of the coolest experiences is watching a film with a live orchestra. It’s an incredible sensory experience that kids will talk about for weeks. Imagine enjoying your favourite movie while a live orchestra plays the score!
If you’re keen to learn more about the venue, why not take a guided tour of this magnificent building? Tours last approximately an hour and are a fantastic way for kids to learn about the history and architecture of the Hall. They’ll love seeing the parts of the hall usually reserved for the Royal family and hearing fascinating stories about famous performances and legendary musicians.
Renowned for its musical events, The Royal Albert Hall hosts everything from classical concerts to pop gigs. The electric atmosphere and world-class performances make attending a show here a truly special experience that teens will always remember.
When it’s time for a break, the Hall offers a range of cafés and restaurants. The Verdi Italian restaurant offers a child-friendly setting and menu. It’s the perfect spot to relax and refuel.
Finally, the Royal Albert Hall was initially built to fulfil the vision of Prince Albert as a ‘Central Hall’ surrounded by museums and places of learning. So why not make the most of it and visit one of the surrounding museums at the same time – The Natural History Museum, the V&A and the Science Museum.
Teen Verdict

I’ve been the the Royal Albert Hall for a concert before and it was pretty amazing. If you can get tickets to something then I highly recommend it. I’m not too sure about casual visits but I have hung out around the area and across from the hall at the monument with friends before. It’s in a nice bit of London so I’ve liked exploring around there in the past. I’d like to go again to see a film because it really was amazing inside.
