Wembley Arena's Masters tournament will relocate

First time in this historic building from Wembley Arena's Masters tournament will relocate in January 2012.

World Snooker chairman Barry Hearn said: “Alexandra Palace is an absolutely fantastic venue, as we’ve found by staging the World Darts Championship there. We’ve seen record ticket sales for the darts and I’m expecting to see the same for the snooker.”

Alexandra Palace will perform host to the snooker elite, also including sporting greats Ronnie O’Sullivan, Mark Selby and John Higgins.

Rebecca Kane, managing director of Alexandra Palace Trading Limited, said: “2012 will be a big year for all those working at the Palace and we are proud and honoured that the year will start in such spectacular fashion with The Masters at Ally Pally.”
