Celebrating 50 Years of the Iconic Crossing

Celebrating 50 Years of the Iconic Crossing

18th June 2019
This August, we will be celebrating 50 years of Abbey Road; the legendary Beatles' record that inspired our studios' name change and went on to become one of the most iconic and recognisable album covers in the world. Soon after it established itself as a hot-spot for London tourism, with tens of thousands of people each year flocking to recreate the band's walking pose over the crossing.

Since the album's release in 1969, the crossing has attracted all sorts of attention, from film stars and politicians, to musicians, athletes and look-alikes. Check out our favourite homages to the band's most famous album cover below:
