Jay-Z declared Alexandra Palace cocnert

He has already got the lot of appreciation from the O2, the Roundhouse and Wembley Arena. Now Jay-Z is to perform the only most important venue in the capital where he has not played, with a particular show at Alexandra Palace.

The American hip-hop singer will take to the stage at the north London venue on 4 November in a sign of his apparent love affair with London.

The gig is expected to be an almost instant sell-out, with 9,000 standing-only tickets.

Promoters said they were also expecting “surprise guests” to perform. It follows his performance at the Roundhouse last month, for which tickets sold out in 20 seconds.

All Jay Z Tickets are available on The Online Ticket Shop.
