This walk
is a unique opportunity to Imagine Beatlemania
and the swinging 60s in London.
It is
a Magical Mystery Tour of the Beatles' London
haunts:
- their
Apple offices, where the group played the famous
'rooftop session';
- Paul
McCartney's offices where Paul can be seen occasionally;
- the
well known London theatre which became 'birthplace' of
Beatlemania;
- the
site of John's infamous 'bigger than Jesus' interview;
- what
John Lennon was doing outside some public toilets
in 1966!
- the
studio where Hey Jude was recorded.
- the
shopping street that was the heart of 'Swinging London'
- Abbey
Road Studios and the famous Abbey Road crossing
- The
tour ends at the Beatles
Coffee Shop, where you can buy a range of Beatles souvenirs
including The Guide
to the Beatles London.
RICHARD
recaptures the era when London was the cultural capital of
the world and the Fab Four were its rulers.
From Wednesday 30th April until Thursday
17th July, The Wednesday and Thursday Magical Mystery Tour
will include a short visit to the Linda McCartney photo exhibition
at the James Hyman Gallery. The exhibition includes many pictures
of The Beatles and Paul McCartney.

Court Road underground station) at the time stated.

| Looking
for somewhere for lunch or dinner? Why not try the ORIGINAL
Hard Rock Cafe - it's at 150 Old Park Lane. The nearest
tube station is Hyde Park Corner. If you come on a Beatles
walk you can get a card which gives you 'First Available
Seating' - effectively jumping the queue at what can be
a very busy restaurant.
While
at the Hard Rock visit the Vault - it includes the Hard
Rock's best memorabilia - including the harpsichord
used by The Beatles on Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds
and All You Need is Love.
