Olympia's Grand Plans
In order to make your event experience even better, Olympia are undergoing some exciting new redevelopment works. The end result will be two new hotels, a theatre, live music venue, restaurants, bars, co-working spaces and beautiful open spaces for everyone to enjoy, becoming a cultural destination by 2025.
Olympia has started the redevelopment already so this year your arrival experience may be a little different to usual with hoarding built up around the venue. Please bear with them and be assured that all entrances are fully operational and once inside you will experience the same Destinations experience you are used to.
A few of the changes you will notice include:
- The entrance to the Grand Hall remains the same.
- The National Hall's entrance at the end of Olympia Way has undergone the most significant changes. The old entrance on Hammersmith Road is no longer operational. In place of Pizza Express, a new full-service entrance is now open on Olympia Way.
If you’d like to explore what the venue will have to offer once it’s all finished you can download a pdf here.
