If you find yourself looking after the pennies and the pounds, there’s a spectacular scheme in London that grants kids free access to some of the best theatre shows in London. Kids Week 2024 offers free theatre tickets to under-17s for an array of shows that are the best on the West End.
More than fifty shows are participating in Official London Theatre’s Kids Week campaign, which allows you to buy tickets for the best shows running from 24 July until 6 September, giving you plenty of time (in fact, you have the entirety of the summer holidays) to make use of this fantastic deal.
What shows are participating in Kids Week 2024?
The best of the West End are participating, with a plethora of fantastic shows to choose from. Expect all the big names and productions, like The Lion King, Matilda, Guys n’ Dolls, Mamma Mia!, and many more.
Other notable musicals and plays available with this Kids Week deal include Hamilton, Back To The Future, Les Miserables, and Hadestown. It’s a popular way to enjoy some well-earned culture as a family, at a discounted price throughout the summer months. There are even some workshops available at certain shows before performances, adding a layer of interactive learning to your outing.
However, this deal is extremely popular and some shows do have limited availability. If you are flexible with your dates and show, you’re more likely to succeed. So get ready to get your devices at the ready to get your tickets.
How do I claim the free tickets for my kids?
Any child aged 17 or under can go to selected performances of any participating show for free if they’re accompanied by a full-paying adult. Adults can also buy up to two extra children’s tickets at half-price if you have got a larger family, and there are no booking fees.
Tickets go on sale at 10am on 11 June and the deal runs for a week (although subject to availability), so be sure to get up on time and get those tickets for your favourite shows. To book your tickets and check availability, click here to visit the official website.
