Sumo Is the Sport to Travel for in 2026 | Condé Nast Traveler

"During sumo’s five-day takeover, the venue transformed into a dohyō alive with roaring crowds—a collision of ancient Japanese ritual unfolding inside a Victorian concert hall usually reserved for symphony orchestras. As the sport’s first visit to London in 34 years, the response was electric and tickets disappeared almost immediately." - Tokyo Halfie

How an Iconic London Concert Venue Feeds 1.8 Million People per Year | Eater

"An iconic London music and events venue that welcomes about 1.8 million visitors a year is fed by executive chef Scott Stokes, who oversees a main catering kitchen, three full restaurants and eight smaller kitchens — meaning on a busy night food can be dispatched from as many as 12 different areas. On double-show days the restaurants run a double service and the operation may cater around 1,300 covers, supported by a team of 44 chefs with a designated head chef for each restaurant. The in-house menus cover British comfort classics and casual offerings — examples include Welsh rarebit tarts, handmade pizza and traditional fish and chips — all prepared to meet the logistical challenge of simultaneous events across the building." - Avery Dalal

"Since its opening by Queen Victoria in 1871, Royal Albert Hall has been home to innumerable concerts and performances. In fact, it hosts about 350 events per year, including classical concerts (it has been home to the annual summer Proms since 1941), rock and pop, ballet, opera, awards ceremonies, and more. Every act from Led Zeppelin to Les Misérables, Cirque du Soleil, and Adele has graced the magnificent building, which remains one of London's most distinct and treasured landmarks."
