The history of O2 Academy Brixton in London dates back to 1929 when it opened as the Astoria, serving as a cinema, concert venue, and theater.
Over the years, it underwent renovations and name changes, finally adopting the Brixton name in 1983.
Today, it continues to host performances by prominent rock bands from both past and present.
The venue’s sloped floor enhances visibility to the stage, and there are seating areas in the upper part of the venue.
