London theatre tickets.....risk a last minute buy?

5 replies

I'm taking dd to London in the summer, mid August. She'd like to see Frozen or Lion King, dare I try to get cheap tickets on the day, or shall I pay the expensive prices now for peace of mind?

I have a feeling that kids theatre month is in august so kids tickets are cheaper then anyway ? Search online

Just buy them now. Your going at peak season.

Kids in Theatre week. It says it happens every year.

@girlsyearapart is right.

Kids Week: Free Theatre Tickets for Kids | Official London Theatre

Kids Week is our way of helping families get into theatre with free theatre tickets for under 18s when accompanied by a full paying adult in August.

Sign up to todaytix they often have flash sales on shows for 24 hours. Kids week is august but you need to be careful - sometimes they are not the bargains they appear as they have hiked up prices to discount them.....

I would look on seat plan for reviews and cross reference to the prices to see if you can find some reasonable seats - restricted views are not always that restricted.

I'm quite fussy where I sit so I often will book in advance.

I often buy tickets in the day via TodayTix - they often have tickets for Frozen available. However I don’t think I would risk it in August and would as already has been mentioned buy kids week tickets.
