Because Theatre is Company.

If it’s your first time, you will need to create an account to be able to book onto an event.  Once this is complete, simply scroll through our events page and find what events appeal to you. Select the number of tickets, add to basket, and head to checkout. If you’re on a paid membership, any applicable discount will be applied automatically – you don’t need to enter a code.

You’ll receive a confirmation email once your booking is complete.  Further details will then be sent as a reminder the week before the event date

When you book a ticket through a standard ticketing platform, you’re buying a seat. With West End Outings, you’re joining a group. That means a pre-show social at most of our events at a nearby bar or venue, a host to welcome you, and a community of people who are there for the same reason you are.

On the pricing side, all West End Outings events are already priced below standard box office rates – Adam negotiates directly with venues, so the prices on the platform reflect that. Paid members (Single, Joint, and Family) get a further discount on top of that on selected events, applied automatically at checkout. It’s a different proposition entirely from buying a ticket on your own.

New events can go on sale weekly. We’d recommend keeping an eye on the events listing and making sure your marketing preferences are set so you hear about new events when they’re announced.

It depends on your membership tier:

• Basic: No set limit (subject to availability). Tickets are at the standard WEO price, which is already below box office.
• Single: One ticket at the additional member discount rate per event.
• Joint: Up to two tickets at the additional member discount rate per event.
• Family: Up to five tickets at the additional member discount rate per event.

If you need more discounted tickets than your tier allows, additional tickets can be purchased at the standard WEO price.

Yes. If you’re logged in and your membership tier qualifies for a discount on that event, it’ll be applied at checkout automatically. You don’t need to enter a code or contact anyone.

Most of our events take place at West End theatres across London – from the big names on Shaftesbury Avenue to venues across the South Bank, Covent Garden, and the West End more broadly. Pre-show socials are usually at a bar or pub within easy walking distance of the theatre.

We also run occasional Getaway Trips outside London, with a meeting point at the start of the day and a full itinerary from there. Details of each event, including venue and meeting location, are on the event page.

You won’t be given a specific seat number in advance, but you won’t be guessing either. Where we can, each event listing shows the rows we have on sale, and we add a seating plan so you can see exactly where our block of seats sits in the auditorium. You’ll get your actual ticket at the pre-show social on the day.

No. We book seats together in a block so the whole West End Outings party is seated as one group, rather than dotted around the theatre. It’s part of what makes the outing feel like an outing.

Yes, always. If you book together, we seat you together. You won’t be split up, so there’s no need to worry about ending up rows apart from whoever you’ve come with.

The social is the heart of what West End Outings is about, it’s where you meet the group, settle in and get into the swing of the day before curtain-up, so we always encourage you to come along. If you genuinely can’t make it, that’s fine. Just let us know and we’ll leave your ticket at the box office for you to collect before the show.
