If you click a link with an * to go through to a provider, we may get paid. This usually only happens if you get a product from it. This is what funds our team of journalists, and keeps us free to use. Yet there are two crucial things you need to know about this.
- This never impacts our editorial recommendations – if it's in, it's in there because we independently rate it best.

Kids go 'free' to West End shows in August
Free child ticket with paying adult. 40+ shows incl Aladdin
ExpiredYou can get a free child’s ticket (age 16 and under) to one of 40+ London theatre shows, including Aladdin, Wicked and Les Misérables, throughout August when you buy a full-priced adult ticket via the Kids Week website.
There are 172,000 tickets available in total (this includes adult and child tickets) through Kids Week and you can book until the offer ends on Fri 31 Aug – some shows have excluded days. The curtain may close on this deal if all seats get booked though. Last year, 104,839 tickets sold within the first 24 hours, so you’ll need to go quick if you’re after a particular performance.
There are no booking or postage fees, and you can save £11.50-£80 depending on the show and seats you choose. You can also get 50% off for up to two more children per adult.
Shows for this August include:
- Bat Out of Hell The Musical (Dominion Theatre), Mon-Fri
- Disney's Aladdin (Prince Edward Theatre), Mon-Sat
- Dreamgirls (Savoy Theatre), Mon-Fri
- Les Misérables (Queen's Theatre), Mon-Thu
- Mamma Mia (Novello Theatre), Mon-Sat
- Matilda The Musical (Cambridge Theatre), Tue-Fri
- School of Rock (Gillian Lynne Theatre), Mon, Wed-Fri
- The Lion King (Lyceum Theatre), 2 Aug, 9 Aug, 11 Aug, 18 Aug, 22 Aug, 24-25 Aug, 28-31 Aug
- The Play That Goes Wrong (Duchess Theatre), Tue-Fri, Sun
- Thriller Live (Lyric Theatre), Tue-Fri, Sun
- Wicked (Apollo Victoria Theatre), Mon-Sat
See 'More info' below for the full list of shows participating in Kids Week 2018.
Which performances can you get the deal on?
You can’t get the deal on every performance of every show, and some exclude their most popular performances, eg, matinees or weekends (such as Matilda and School of Rock). Tickets are spread randomly across all dates, shows and seat prices, so it could be pot luck finding the show and performance you want on a particular date.
To book, select how many adult tickets you want, then from the drop-down menu, select the relevant child ticket type (free or half-price). You'll get to see which seats are available during the booking process. There’s no limit to the number of performances you can get tickets for, but you'll only be able to book a maximum of eight tickets per show (one free child per paying adult). In the past, we've seen some shows increase their allocation of tickets and more shows have been added during the booking period, so it could be worth checking back.
To find out which performances are included in this offer, go to the Kids Week What’s On page and click on a show.

£10-£40 West End theatre tickets
20+ shows incl Phantom of the Opera. For Jan/Feb
ExpiredTheatre lovers can get £10-£40 tickets for over 20 London shows including The Phantom of the Opera, Thriller and Wicked at London Theatre's New Year Sale, for performances until Fri 9 Feb.
On Tue 30 Jan, there were 15,000 tickets still available (130,000 tickets went on general sale on Tue 5 Dec). Tickets include matinée and evening performances, and some weekends.
Which performances can you get the deal on?
Tickets are spread randomly across all dates and shows, but tickets for specific performances are subject to availability and limited per performance – so it could be pot luck finding the show you want on a particular date. Some shows exclude weekends.
Not all shows offer tickets at the lowest price point of £10, and the cheaper tickets for the more popular shows are likely to go very quickly.
Seats are discounted based on their price tier, so the amount of saving on the normal price will vary per show and per seat. £10 tickets will usually be the cheapest normal-priced seats in the theatre, and £40 tickets will be the top-priced (non-premium) seats.
For some shows, only one ticket price is included, such as £10 or £20. For others, there are a range of tickets available, from £10-£40.
A maximum of eight tickets can be booked per show per cardholder and there’s no limit to the number of performances you can get tickets for. Tickets are non-refundable and seat allocations will be visible during the booking process. Shows may increase their allocation of tickets at any time and more shows may be added during the booking period.
There are no booking fees and the tickets will either be posted to you free of charge or you can collect them from the box office on the day of the performance.

Use the Money Mantras
Before spending, use Martin’s Mantras. If you answer 'NO' to any, then don't buy!
Then ask:
- Do I need it?
- Can I afford it?
- Have you checked prices elsewhere?
Then ask:
- Will I use it?
- Is it worth it?
Free protection for all shopping!
There's a little-known piece of legislation that turns any credit card into a financial self-defence superhero. 'Section 75' of the Consumer Credit Act means your plastic must protect anything you buy for more than £100 for free, so if there's a problem or the company goes bust, you can still get your money back.
And although Section 75 doesn't apply to debit cards, there is something else to fall back on if you've paid using a debit card, or used a credit card for a purchase under £100. Known as Chargeback, this is part of banks' and card companies' internal rules and not a legal requirement. Read full details of Section 75 or Chargeback, plus how to claim, in our guides.
What the * means above
If a link has an * by it, that means it is an affiliated link and therefore it helps MoneySavingExpert stay free to use, as it is tracked to us. If you go through it, it can sometimes result in a payment or benefit to the site. It's worth noting this means the third party used may be named on any credit agreements.
You shouldn’t notice any difference and the link will never negatively impact the product. Plus the editorial line (the things we write) is NEVER impacted by these links. We aim to look at all available products. If it isn't possible to get an affiliate link for the top deal, it is still included in exactly the same way, just with a non-paying link.

When will your student loan be written off, cancelled, or paid off?
5 November 2024![]()
It’s a question I’m asked all the time. Many know that current students no longer need to repay their loans 30 years after the April following graduation, yet for those who started university before 2012, there are a variety of options. This information has been a long-term part of my Should I repay my student loan? guide (where... -
Stopcock tips – can you find yours?
15 October 2024![]()
A stopcock is your mains water tap (the off switch). Everyone should know where theirs is, especially at this time of year when pipes can burst due to frost. If you don’t know where yours is, your house could be flooded with water everywhere, while you have no idea how to stop it. -
