The Abbey Road Institute Global Graduation Ceremony 2022 | Picture Gallery

In early July, we came together with students and staff from London, Frankfurt, Johannesburg, Sydney and Paris for the first Global Graduation since 2019 at the famous Abbey Road Studios.

We were delighted and thrilled to celebrate three years of graduates from the Abbey Road Institutes around the globe. And the wait was worth it. It was an incredible experience for everybody involved and the perfect setting to honour our graduating students’ hard work and commitment.

The ceremony was held at the legendary Studio Two, the scene of landmark recordings by The Beatles, Pink Floyd, Oasis, Adele, and more recently, Joy Crookes, Little Simz and DAVE.
Following inspiring speeches from the Studios management, our Global Programme director Carlos Lellis and the management teams from each individual institute, students were asked to enter the stage one by one to receive their diplomas and capture this important moment on camera. (Pictures can be found below and on the Graduation Photo Gallery).

As a follow-up to the graduation ceremony, students from the Institutes were treated to a series of workshops and masterclasses at the Angel Studios, the impressively renovated and new home of the Abbey Road Institute in London. Award-winning Producer, Mixer and Recording Engineer Haydn Bendall shared his incredible knowledge and experience during an exclusive recording workshop in Studio One, and Ron Haryanto and Nick Ribbens from our Sydney and Amsterdam Institutes gave a workshop about songwriting and writing camps. The perfect lead and stepping stone to international collaborations.

Take a behind-the-scenes look at the ceremonies and the graduation party at Londons’ iconic music venue Scale through the pictures below. Additionally, you’ll find a selection of pictures and the official Highlight Video of the Graduation Ceremony on our social media channels.

Abbey Road Institutes’ Global Graduation was a memorable experience, and we look forward to joining the next event in London with the upcoming graduates from our Advanced Diploma in Music Production and Sound Engineering at Abbey Road Institute Amsterdam.
