Congratulations to the class of 2025 and all our graduating students. Many of whom travelled from across the world to join us on Wednesday, 11th June 2025 at Abbey Road Studios.
We’re still processing the magical day we had at this year’s ceremony in Abbey Road’s prestigious Studio One! Watch some of our favourite highlights below to get a flavour of the 3 day event.
Graduating inside Abbey Road’s Studio One
This year, we returned to the iconic Studio One at Abbey Road, with over 350 students and guests joining us across the three days to celebrate the hard work and dedication of our students. It was a week to remember.
Abbey Road Institute CEO Luca Barassi set the tone and welcomed graduates and their guests.
“This room has been the birthplace of timeless music, groundbreaking innovation and unforgettable moments in audio history. Today, we add another chapter to that legacy, as we celebrate the remarkable achievement. This year is especially significant. Not only because we gather in the newly refurbished Studio One to celebrate our graduates, but also because we mark the
10th anniversary of Abbey Road Institute!“
Celebrating Success With A Special Performance
We were delighted to host a string quartet, comprising London Symphony Orchestra musicians. They performed ‘Stories From the Studios’, a curated journey through the fabled history of the most celebrated recording destination in the world. Featuring unique storytelling and bespoke live performances of the most iconic songs and film scores from Abbey Road’s history.
Our graduates were delighted to receive many special good-luck wishes and inspirational messages from friends of Abbey Road Institute and music industry figures. Including Andrew Scheps, Sylvia Massy, Alessia Cara and Nile Rodgers.
