Altitude London

Altitude London is a collection of venues in the 387 ft (118 m)-high Millbank Tower, a skyscraper in central London, covering over 30,000 sq ft (2,800 m2) of event space. Altitude 360 London, along with The River Room London, The Mill Bank Cinema & Media Centre, and The View Collection, make up London's largest riverside venue as well as London's largest venue located in a skyscraper. The concept and design was the brainchild of the global brand owner. The venue was opened in three phases, with the first phase opened in September 2007 by the then Leader of the Opposition David Cameron, the second phase was opened by Mayor Boris Johnson and the final third phase opened in May 2010 by Prime Minister David Cameron.

Altitude 360 is at the top of the Millbank Tower.

One of the final parts to open was the Altitude Viewing Gallery on the 29th floor.[1]

The global brand owner sold the business to the current management firm, Alan Turtill, Sam Simpson, and Mike Hockey in 2018 whilst retaining the IP and brand rights.

Alan Turtill took the helm of the new team as Managing Director. Entrepreneur Mike Hockey and Sam Simpson also supported in management roles.[2]

The business closed temporarily during the COVID 19 Pandemic and did not reopen.
