Olympia’s Exhibition Heritage
Olympia’s story dates back to 1886, when it opened as one of London’s grandest exhibition spaces. Designed in the Victorian era, its iconic Grand Hall’s barrel-vaulted glass roof was an architectural marvel of its time. Over the decades, Olympia has hosted everything from wellbeing shows and car exhibitions to entertainment trade fairs.
The redevelopment retains Olympia’s historic heritage whilst modernising it for a 21st-century lifestyle. Olympia is restoring its original exhibition heritage architecture – a feature appreciated by today’s generations.
