The Rivoli Ballroom

The Rivoli Ballroom
The Rivoli is a truly amazing venue!!
I'll be there this Saturday,

The Rivoli showcases great nights of live music and dancing
stepping inside is like stepping back in time
built in 1911 and has remained unchanged
reopened in 1959 as a Ballroom
with a sprung maple dance floor, red velvet wallpaper, large chandeliers, and chinese lanterns

It is at 350 Brockely Road London SE42BY,opposite Crofton Park overground rail station

The Beautiful Ballroom has been the backdrop for an Agent Provocateur photo shoot, an Oasis Mojo cover shot,
Florence and the Machine performed live for Channel 4, some of BBCs Strictly Come Dancing was also filmed there

I'll be taking photos so watch this space!!!
