Many of London’s West End theatres are beginning to announce reopenings with social distancing from 17 May. Providing the roadmap goes ahead as planned, theatres hope to open at full capacity from 21 June and we can’t wait to welcome our audiences back!
If you’re a theatre fan who would like to support the industry or you’d like to treat your loved ones to a trip to the theatre but are unsure what tickets or dates to book for, here are five reasons to buy Theatre Tokens.
1. They have no expiry date & can be used in a variety of places
Leap straight into theatres once they reopen!
We understand that there’s nothing more annoying than buying a gift card and realising that it’s expired before you’ve had a chance to use it. To ensure this doesn’t happen, our Theatre Tokens have absolutely no expiry date. You can feel confident that you will be able to see a show at more than 260 venues across the country, including London’s West End, as soon as we reopen.
They can be topped up whenever you want and can be used to buy theatre tickets in a number of places including 260 venues across the country, online at Official London Theatre, and in London’s West End theatres.
2. They make the perfect gift
Celebrate special occasions with the gift of theatre
Whether you’re looking for a present to cheer up your theatre-loving best friend or an anniversary present for your parents who never have the time to organise a date night, Theatre Tokens can make the perfect gift. With theatres announcing reopenings, they’ll be well prepared to hit the book button for their fave West End musical or a production they’ve always dreamed of seeing. And…if you’ve got nobody to buy a present for, how about yourself? If there was ever a good time to treat yourself, it’s now!
3. You can make them extra stagey!
Add a stagey sparkle to your Theatre Tokens
Theatre Tokens can be purchased as a gift card or eGift. If you opt for the latter, you can choose from a stagey selection of designs. From birthday prints and images from West End shows to exclusive #IMissTheatre branded designs, we’ve got something for everyone. Check it out!
4. It is quick and easy to buy them online
Buying Theatre Tokens online is as easy as pie!
We understand it’s a tricky time for people with social distancing and shielding for health and safety reasons, but we have some good news! Theatre Tokens can be purchased from the comfort of your own home and they can be delivered to your loved ones straight to their inbox or to their front door! It’s quick, easy and safe!
5. It’s the gift that gives back
We can’t wait to celebrate with you when the theatres reopen!
