Enshrined in pop culture as the site where Let It Be was recorded and the location of the era-defining rooftop performance on January 30, 1969, the townhouse is a cornerstone of music history. The upcoming ticketed experience will span seven floors, featuring a massive collection of never-before-seen material from the Apple Corps archives. Visitors will be able to explore rotating exhibitions, browse a dedicated fan store, and visit a meticulous recreation of the basement recording studio. Most significantly, fans will have the opportunity to stand on the very rooftop where John, Paul, George, and Ringo performed in public for the last time.
The announcement represents a “full circle” moment for Apple Corps under the leadership of CEO Tom Greene. Sir Paul McCartney, who recently revisited the site, expressed his excitement for the project, noting the many special memories held within its walls. Ringo Starr echoed the sentiment, simply stating, “It’s like coming home.” The opening arrives amid a vibrant era for the band’s legacy, following the success of the Peter Jackson-directed Get Back and the chart-topping release of the final Beatles song, “Now And Then,” in 2023.
As anticipation builds for the 2027 opening, Apple Corps is also looking further ahead to a four-film cinematic event directed by Sam Mendes, scheduled for 2028. For those eager to step inside the world of Apple, registration for news and updates is now open at the official Beatles website. London’s cultural landscape is about to get a permanent dose of Beatlemania.
