We firmly believe that Alexandra Palace should be a place where everyone feels safe, respected and valued. We condemn the appalling statements made during a support act performance in May.

With over 200 artists performing each year, we want to make it clear that while we respect freedom of expression, we stand firmly against any form of discrimination, racism, antisemitism, incitement to hatred or violence.

While we have not, at this stage, been contacted by the Metropolitan Police we will provide them with any assistance they request.

We are always listening, learning and developing as an organisation, particularly during this challenging time for many communities and we are committed to ensuring we foster a supportive environment for all to enjoy.
