Frequently asked questions

What is the minimum age to see a West End show?

Most West End theatres do not admit children under 4 or 5 years old. Check your desired show to see the age cutoff and to be sure, regardless of what ages are allowed in the theatre, if your desired show is suitable for your children's age group. Some shows, for example, allow in children as young as 5 but are recommended for older children due to their content or special effects.

Do children need their own ticket to attend a show?

Yes, every child needs their own ticket to attend all West End shows and most Off-West End shows. Children will have their own seat, and they must be able to comfortably sit in their seat on their own for the duration of the show.
