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.

Getting around

Parking

The theatre itself has no parking facilities but there are disabled bays nearby on Rupert Street and Whitcomb Street.

Step free access and wheelchairs
The main entrance has 3 steps and two sets of swing doors. A step‑free entrance is available via side doors at the front of the building, providing direct access to the Stalls. You must notify staff on arrival so the Duty Manager can let you in. Wheelchair spaces:

2 wheelchair spaces are located at the rear of the Stalls.

Transfers: Wheelchair users may transfer to any aisle seat in the Stalls; staff can store the wheelchair for the performance. Note: There is no customer lift, and all other levels (Royal Circle, Upper Circle, Gallery) must be accessed by stairs.
Accessible toilets

An accessible, adapted toilet is located at the back of the Stalls on street level.
