Keen to know more about those special offers this summer? Let’s take a look.

Kids Week

Discover London’s vibrant theatre scene during Kids Week, Official London Theatre's annual initiative where children aged 17 and below go free when accompanied by an adult paying full price. This is a fantastic way to encourage young people to engage more with the arts and learn more about the wonderful world of theatre – not to mention the activity sessions and interactive curtain calls! Got a bigger fam? You’re in luck because two additional children can attend for half price this summer. Just be sure to book before August 31, 2025. And if you’d like some recommendations? Well, you can’t go wrong with a family-friendly classic like Matilda or Wicked– but then there’s also the joyful Starlight Express currently on in Wembley Troubadour Theatre, as well as the heartwarming RSC’s My Neighbour Totoro. 

Theatre for Every Child

The Society of London Theatre (SOLT) believes that ‘every child has the right to go to the theatre’ and in October 2023, launched their Theatre for Every Child advocacy campaign. As a non-profit organisation that represents London’s theatre producers and owners, SOLT prioritises accessibility for all by making theatre possible for everyone, and has been committed to this for over a century since 1908. Show your support for the initiative by using the #TheatreForEveryChild on socials and purchasing tickets from Official London Theatre to support their work and future initiatives like this one.
