This was the parade of the champions on October the 28th 1958.
The arena hosted its final event on Tuesday, 28 October 1958. It was a sentimental occasion and promoter Jack Solomons headlined with a World-class lightweight fight between Dave Charnley and Carlos Ortiz (who was to go on to become World champion). This is how The Times reported it:
After 22 years Harringay Arena is closing. This evening we shall hear this great hall echo to cheers and see cigarette smoke swirl around the ring for the last time. The most important chapter in the history of British professional boxing is over.
