\n\tIn 2017, Olympia was purchased by the firms\u00a0Deutsche Finance International\u00a0and\u00a0Yoo <\/a><\/strong>Capital; four years later, they announced plans to build a 1,575-seat theater at the center. It was announced last month that The Shubert Organization and Trafalgar Entertainment would operate the venue, which has since been dubbed the Olympia Theatre and is due to open in late 2027.<\/p>\n

\n\tIn addition to British Airways ARC and the Olympia Theatre, 30 new bars and eateries are planned for the Olympia complex, along with two new hotels and 550,000 square feet of office space. <\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cOlympia is a place that has an incredible musical history which we want to honour whilst creating a venue that is thoroughly modern with world class facilities for artists and fans alike,\u201d said Andrew Spencer<\/strong>, COO for AEG Presents Europe, <\/strong>in a statement.<\/p>\n

\n\tAEG Presents UK manages a large portfolio of venues and events in the U.K., including the summer concert series at Hyde Park. It also books the University of Wolverhampton at The Halls, Watford Colosseum, indigo at The O2 and Eventim Apollo.\u00a0<\/p>\n
