Theatre Royal Haymarket
The Theatre Royal Haymarket is one of London’s oldest and most distinguished playhouses, first opening its doors in 1720 and now recognised as the third‑oldest theatre in continuous use in the city. Over its long history, it has welcomed legendary performers including Sir John Gielgud and Dame Judi Dench, and its refined neoclassical design—shaped significantly by architect John Nash during its 19th‑century redevelopment—gives the venue its iconic elegance.
We believe that the joy of live performances should be accessible to all, and we're committed to removing barriers so everyone can enjoy entertainment in a comfortable, inclusive, and welcoming environment.
