The Mayfair venue has long been enshrined in pop cultural history, having served as one of Apple Corps Ltd’s earliest headquarters, housing the studio where ‘Let It Be‘ was recorded, and, most famously, providing the setting for The Beatles’ final public performance with the era-defining rooftop concert in 1969.
In 2027, it will open its doors to the public for the first time. Its launch next year will allow fans access to seven floors of never-before-seen material from Apple Corps’ extensive archives, rotating exhibitions, a fan store, as well as a recreation of the original studio where ‘Let it Be’ was recorded.
It will also give fans the opportunity to tread in the bands’ footsteps and relive the iconic rooftop concert- as immortalised in Peter Jackson’s Get Back – at exactly the spot it happened.
“Wow,” Ringo Starr said of the news. “It’s like coming home.”
“It was such a trip to get back to 3 Savile Row recently and have a look around,” Paul McCartney added. “There are so many special memories within the walls, not to mention the rooftop. The team have put together some really impressive plans and I’m excited for people to see it when it’s ready.”

Apple Corps’ CEO Tom Greene said he was “thrilled” to be bringing Apple Corps back to its spiritual home. “Every single day,” Greene added, “fans are taking pictures of the outside of 3 Savile Row – but next year they can go in and explore all seven floors of the iconic building, including the rooftop where even the railings remain the same from that famous day in 1969.”
Further details of The Beatles at 3 Savile Row, as well as details of a second experience currently in development, will be announced in due course – and fans can register here for updates.
It follows news that a piece of the band’s local history in Liverpool looks set to be sold off for scrap, after nobody came forward to re-home the mast of the Salvor ship, which featured in the group’s first photo together after Starr became a member.
Elsewhere, 2026 looks to be a busy year for the two living Beatles – McCartney will release his new album ‘The Boys Of Dungeon Lane’ later this month (pre-order here), while Starr also released his 22nd solo album ‘Long Long Road’ in April.
The former includes a duet between the two former bandmates on ‘Home To Us’, a nostalgic reflection on their Liverpool roots that marks their first ever vocal collaboration. It also features Texas’ Sharleen Spiteri and The Pretenders’ Chrissie Hynde.
‘Long Long Road’, meanwhile saw Ringo joined by St. Vincent, Sheryl Crow and Billy Strings and was produced by T-Bone Burnett. He recently spoke to NME about the record and the guest features.
“Everyone on there brings something different because they’re all great players and singers. They’re great musicians who have been at it a while, and they all came through T Bone. In my eyes, he’s never made a mistake on my records,” he said.
Sam Mendes’ quartet of big screen biopics of The Beatles are also on their way, with each film taking on the perspective of a different member of the band. Set for release in April 2028, they will see Paul Mescal play McCartney, Harris Dickinson as John Lennon, Joseph Quinn as George Harrison and Barry Keoghan as Starr.
Steven Soderbergh, meanwhile, is working on a Lennon documentary, John Lennon: The Last Interview, which he has revealed includes the use of generative AI.
