Frequently asked questions

What time should I arrive to the theatre?

It's best to arrive early to the theatre — allow 20-30 minutes to wait in the queue to enter the theatre and get your tickets checked, use the bathroom (as the lines are often longest at intermission), buy concessions and merchandise, and find your seat before the performance starts.

What's the appropriate dress code for the theatre?

There is no set dress code to attend theatre in London — since you'll be sitting at the show for a few hours, it's more important to be comfortable than to be fancy. You might want to dress up if your theatregoing trip is a special occasion, but it's not required. Additionally, regardless of clothing, it's best to leave loud or light-up accessories at home, as they might distract other theatregoers.

Are London theatres open seven days a week?

There are London shows playing every day of the week, excluding some holidays. Every show has one or two days per week where they don't perform (most often Sunday or Monday), but since every show's schedule is different, there are always multiple shows playing on any given day at London's theatres.
