EarthCam Live: Abbey Road Crossing (London, England)
Plan your trip to
About this camera
Every day, people from all over the world stop traffic on a quiet street in St John's Wood to recreate one of the most famous album covers ever made. This 4K EarthCam stream, located just outside Abbey Road Studios in London, England, lets you watch them do it.
The zebra crossing became a landmark after The Beatles walked across it for the cover of their 1969 album Abbey Road. Since then it has drawn a constant stream of fans who line up, stride across in single file and pose for photos, often while patient London drivers wait for them to finish. You do not have to be a Beatles fanatic to enjoy it: the mix of tourists, locals, black cabs and red buses makes for a surprisingly entertaining scene.
What you will see
- Fans re-creating the famous four-person walk.
- Everyday London traffic flowing along Abbey Road.
- The changing London weather, from drizzle to sunshine.
Busy afternoons can bring a near-continuous parade of photo attempts, while early mornings are calmer and more local. It is a small, cheerful corner of music history, streamed live by EarthCam.
