A thrilling new way to experience the capital is coming. ‘Summit,’ London’s newest roof-top adventure and the highest roof walk in the UK (130 metres above sea level), opens right here at Alexandra Palace on Saturday 14 February 2026.
This fully guided, one-of-a-kind experience invites visitors to scale the roof of Ally Pally and take in uninterrupted panoramic views stretching 25 miles across the city.
For more than 150 years, Alexandra Palace has been one of London’s most beloved landmarks. Now, with ‘Summit,’visitors can reach entirely new heights, discovering its history and breath-taking skyline vistas from a completely fresh perspective.
Created by Wire & Sky, the experts behind the Dare Skywalk at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, the Cutty Sark rig climb, Liverpool’s Anfield Abseil and previously Up at The O2, ‘Summit’ is set to soar above North London. The hour-long journey leads climbers to the famous Angel of Plenty statue before opening out to a 360-degree view of the capital.
With specialist guides leading the way, guests follow a purpose-built route taking in world-famous landmarks such as St Paul’s Cathedral, The Shard, Canary Wharf and multiple major stadiums. There’s plenty of time to pause, enjoy the view and capture unforgettable photos before returning safely to ground level.
‘Summit’ offers three standard climb types:
- ‘Daytime Climbs’ for stunning wide-open views
- ‘Sunset Climbs’ for golden hour skies
- ‘London Lights Climbs’ for a dazzling panorama after dark
There are also options for group climbs, charity fundraisers, private climbs and educational climbs, making ‘Summit‘ suitable for team-building, special occasions and school groups.
Lucy Fenner, Commercial Director at Alexandra Palace, says; “For more than 150 years, Ally Pally has been the People’s Palace, a place where everyone can come to experience something truly special, and we’re thrilled to add Summit to that legacy. This new rooftop adventure offers a completely new perspective on the Palace, with stunning panoramic views across London.”
“We’re thrilled to bring Wire & Sky rooftop adventures to Alexandra Palace, an iconic London landmark with history, entertainment and incredible views,” adds Andy Broad, Managing Director of Wire & Sky.
