Elf The Musical Ticket Prices

Santa’s coming, and this is one show to put on your list! This family musical based on the film is a delight for kids and the young at heart, with bright and bold sets and costumes transporting you straight into the magic of the season. 

There is a huge range in ticket prices, which currently start at £32 and rise to over £200. There are plenty of ways to get cheap tickets for Elf The Musical, however, including hidden gem seats and seasonal offers. Below, we’ve listed our top tips to help you have a very theatrical Christmas for less.

Elf The Musical Discount Tickets

The show has previously been included in some of the West End’s biggest seasonal promotions, such as London Theatre Week, when tickets to some of the biggest shows in London are available from £25.

If you cannot find an offer for the date you would like to book, it is worth looking at the restricted view seats in the back half of the Grand Circle for Elf The Musical cheap tickets. These cost less than £90 and are similarly priced to the back of the Stalls. Websites like Theatre Monkey and SeatPlan have useful seating tips and photos from theatregoers to help you get an idea of the view from different areas.

When To Book Tickets

Availability for Elf The Musical is good across most price bands, but is likely to sell more in the weeks leading up to Christmas. Prices are more expensive overall on the weekend and some days immediately around Christmas; for example, the cheapest three price bands currently cost less on the evening of 27 December (a Tuesday) compared to the evening of 23 December a week earlier. 

No last-minute discount, day seat or Rush schemes have been announced yet, but we add information as it becomes available. 

Top Tips For Your Visit

The Aldwych Theatre is close to all of the major central London attractions that will be lit up with incredible Christmas lights at this time of year! We recommend walking 10 minutes to see Covent Garden and Oxford Street all lit up, or popping across the river to the South Bank, where a market and mini-funfair is open.

Inside the theatre, there is a cloakroom for luggage and coats, with a charge of £2 per item. Booster seats can be rented for £1, so children have a good view of the stage. 

There are bars inside the venue but to save money, you can bring in soft drinks in plastic bottles and cold snacks such as sweets.
