Theatreland loves a sale – there’s no way we were going to get to Black Friday without being given opportunity to save some serious cash on West End tickets. Theatre’s big Black Friday sale runs from today until early December and features savings of up to 60 percent on a wide variety of shows.

Run by London Theatre Direct – in partnership with Time Out – obvious jewels in the crown are the big West End shows and musicals that have been running for years and usually charge a pretty penny – these periodic sales are your occasional chance to get into them at a more manageable price. Big participants this time include The Devil Wears Prada, Back to the Future, Starlight Express, Six the Musical and more.

It’s also great for picking up a Christmas theatre bargain: festive shows are often only on for a few weeks and are happy to get all the advance sales they can get – offers include Elf the Musical, Bluey’s Big Play and Pinocchio at the Globe.

Then, finally, it’s great to pick up a ticket for one of the big shows of next year, which haven’t had time to build up buzz yet: great 2026 shows to score bargains on include Teeth ’N’ Smiles starring Self Esteem, Cirque du Soleil’s OVO and megahyped Broadway comedy Oh, Mary!

The Black Friday 2025 theatre sale runs from now until Dec 8. Buy tickets here.

The best new London theatre shows to book for in 2025 and 2026.
