Beatles' Iconic Rooftop Studio Reopens as Fan Experience

In 2027, London will welcome "The Beatles at 3 Savile Row," the first official fan experience dedicated to the legendary band. This historic Mayfair building served as an early headquarters for Apple Corps Ltd. and was the site of pivotal moments in Beatles history. It was within these walls that the album "Let It Be" was recorded, and famously, it was the setting for the band's final public performance on its rooftop on January 30, 1969.

The immersive experience will span seven floors, featuring extensive archives from Apple Corps with never-before-seen materials. Visitors can anticipate rotating exhibitions, a dedicated fan store, and a meticulously recreated studio capturing the essence of the "Let It Be" recording sessions. The plans also aim to let fans relive the iconic rooftop concert, an event immortalized in Peter Jackson's "Get Back" documentary series.

Paul McCartney expressed his excitement, recalling the special memories within the building and on the rooftop. Ringo Starr simply stated it felt like "coming home." Apple Corps' CEO, Tom Greene, highlighted that fans already photograph the exterior daily and will soon be able to explore its interior, including the remarkably preserved rooftop railings from the 1969 concert. Further details regarding the opening date are expected in the coming months. The 42-minute rooftop set, featuring new songs and keyboardist Billy Preston, was eventually stopped by police due to noise levels and was later featured in the band's documentaries.
