The Beatles are turning their 1960s headquarters, Apple Corps, into a 7-story museum for fans to visit. 3 Savile Row was where The Beatles recorded their last album ‘Let It Be’ and more famously performed their last gig together in 1969. Although Apple Corps left Savile Row in the early 70s, the company is still thriving to this very day, contributing to the restored and remastered The Beatles Anthology and production of The Beatles: Get Back. After many decades, the building has now been re-acquired by Apple Corps and will be full of never seen before memorabilia. The attraction will include items from Apple Corps’ archives, a recreation of the basement where ‘Let It Be’ was created, and temporary exhibitions with a fan store.
Fans already frequent 3 Savile Row, a common Beatles attraction located in Mayfair, but as of 2027 they will be able to enter the exhibit and explore it all the way up to the famous rooftop where they sang their last song together.
Members of the band, Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr, both commented on the new project, giving it The Beatles’ stamp of approval. According to The Beatles website McCartney stated: “It was such a trip to get back to 3 Savile Row recently and have a look around. There are so many special memories within the walls, not to mention the rooftop. The team have put together some really impressive plans and I’m excited for people to see it when it’s ready.” Additionally, Starr noted “Wow, it’s like coming home,” affirming that visitors will be transported back to the 60s to re-experience the era of The Beatles.
Tom Greene, CEO of Apple Corps, also commented “We’re thrilled to bring Apple Corps back to its spiritual home and give The Beatles fans something truly special. Every single day, fans are taking pictures of the outside of 3 Savile Row – but next year they can go in and explore all seven floors of the iconic building, including the rooftop where even the railings remain the same from that famous day in 1969.”
So far, an opening date for the museum hasn’t been finalised, but you can sign up for updates and news via their website. Meanwhile, Starr’s tour with All Starr Band begins on the 28th of May and McCartney’s upcoming album ‘The Boys of Dungeon Lane’ is set to come out on the 29th of May.
