Having managed to side step much mention of any venue with several (O2 hell) name changes recently I come to the master of such in the UK, with a range of sponsors all seeming to get grouped under the above banner comfortably here.

A search of Hammersmith (venues) give us the above name and (1980 - 2023);
but click there you only get 2007 - 2023. Scooping in HMV (2009 - 2012) and Eventim ('14 - '23).
You find nothing pre 2007.

Yet that same search shows Labett's Apollo ('93 - '97) & Carling Apollo ('02 - '06). To conform with the above they should be "scouped in" too.
Though that still leaves the years 1980 - 1992 AND 1998 - 2002 unaccounted for!!!!
Where are they??

I believe I have often added to those (18) years and the events can be found in the artist page but not on a venue page!!

Please can we have all '80 to '25 shows on Hammersmith Apollo page with Labett's and Carling intergrated too.

Many thanks.

It was known as Hammersmith Odeon for a while and can be found https://www.45worlds.com/live/venue/hammersmith-odeon with a short biog.

The Beatles did 24/12/1964 - 16/01/1965. 20 concerts, is this a record for the most concerts at one venue. I went to the 5th January 1965 show.

OK, Ok, I see my small error - due to that (1980 - 2023) dates.
Clearly that is wrong as 'Odeon' evidently until 1993.

BUT that still leaves 1998 - 2002 unaccounted.

I'm not sure but I think it might have been closed for a while in the 90's?
