Insider Tip: Some unsold tickets for Only Fools and Horses drop in price close to the performance date, but aren't labelled as discounts. You can book these as you would any "normal", non discounted ticket on the official website or via a ticket agent. Some seats we checked had a massive price difference, dropping from £77.50 to £10 at the last minute!

4. What Are the Best Only Fools and Horses Seats?

Only Fools and Horses is best enjoyed from seats as central as possible, in the Stalls and Royal Circle. Box office prices for these seats currently range from £155 to about £30, but might even drop to £10 if you book very close to the performance date.

Seats at the far sides of Theatre Royal Haymarket’s Royal Circle and Upper Circle are quite notoriously restricted view - the official site even labels some of these as “missing 90% of the performance” and prices reflect this. 

Theatre seating experts SeatPlan are a great help in situations like this; their Theatre Royal Haymarket seating plan features lots of photos and reviews from people who’ve sat in these seats for Only Fools and Horses, so you can judge whether they’re good value for money. 

Best Only Fools and Horses tickets under £60: If you don’t want to spend more than £60 per ticket for Only Fools and Horses, consider booking some of these seats, which are rated 4* or above by SeatPlan users:

1. Upper Circle D18 (from £50) is distant but offers a decent overhead view of the stage.

2. Upper Circle C22 (from £27.50) is marked restricted view but has a surprisingly good view for the price. Restricted view seats further along will get progressively worse. 

3. Gallery A9 (from £22.50) is very steep and on bench seating, but for a very tight budget is one of the best of the bunch in this section.

Insider Tip: Only Fools and Horses has a two-level set, with scenes on a balcony, so you might miss parts if you’re sat in the back half of the Stalls.

5. Cheap Only Fools and Horses Matinee Tickets

There are two matinee performances every week at Only Fools and Horses the Musical, on Wednesday and Saturday at 2.30pm. Evening performances start at 7.30pm.  

Tickets for the Wednesday matinee are not usually any cheaper than weekday evening performances, but they are cheaper than weekends and usually sell more slowly - giving more choice across every price band.

For example, as we write this, Royal Circle G19 is £87.10 on a Wednesday afternoon in September and £106.70 on the Saturday of that same week.

7. About the Only Fools and Horses Venue

Only Fools and Horses is performed at Theatre Royal Haymarket in central London, a short walk away from Piccadilly Circus. It’s a bit far away from the streets of Peckham, where the sitcom is set, but nevertheless there are a lot of fun and free sights to have a butcher’s at nearby before you watch the musical. 

You cannot bring hot food or drink or glass bottles into the theatre, but a plastic bottle of water is usually fine (and will save you money and time at the interval when everyone queues up at the bar!).

Theatre Royal Haymarket is unable to store large luggage so where possible bring a small bag, leave your bags at your hotel or find a Stasher location nearby.
