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.
- You'll always get as good a deal (or better) than if you went direct.

Kids aged 17 and under go 'free' to West End shows in August
With a paying adult. Including hits such as Grease, Mrs Doubtfire and The Wizard of Oz
ExpiredThe popular Kids Week theatre promotion is back. You can nab a free child ticket (for children aged 17 and under) to 30+ London theatre shows with the purchase of a full-priced adult ticket from the Official London Theatre's Kids Week website.
All performances can be booked online at via Official London Theatre, with hit shows including Disney's Frozen, Grease, Heathers The Musical, The Mousetrap, Phantom of the Opera, Tina: The Tina Turner Musical, Wicked, The Wizard of Oz and more – see the full list of 30+ shows.
As tickets went on sale on Tuesday 13 June, some shows are now sold out.
Which performances can you get the deal on?
Seats for the most popular shows tend to be snapped up quickly. If you're bringing more than one child, the first child ticket is free and then you can get 50% off for a maximum of two more children per adult. Last year we saw savings of up to £90 depending which shows and seats were selected – and there are no booking or postage fees.
It's not every performance of every show – some exclude their most popular performances, such as matinees or weekends. Tickets are distributed randomly across all dates, shows and seat prices, so it helps to be flexible in your choice.
During the booking process you'll get to see which seats are available. You can book a maximum of eight tickets per show (one free child per paying adult). If you can't find the tickets you want, it's worth checking back at a later date – in past years we've seen some shows increase their allocation of tickets as time goes on.

£10-£50 London theatre tickets for February & March performances
40 shows including Bat Out of Hell, Disney's Frozen, Only Fools & Horses and Wicked
ExpiredTheatre lovers can get £10-£50 tickets for 40 London West End shows, including many biggies such as Back to the Future: The Musical, Bat Out of Hell, Mamma Mia!, Disney's Frozen, Only Fools and Horses, and Wicked via the Official London Theatre Sale – see 'More info' below for the full list of participating shows.
The sale, which launched in December, has been extended to include performances until Friday 31 March for most shows, but you'll need to book tickets by 11.59pm on Friday 10 February.
When we checked on Thursday 2 February, there were about 150,000 tickets available. They're for matinée, evening, and some weekend performances, though the discounted tickets are spread randomly across all dates. Discounted tickets are limited per performance, so it could be pot luck finding the show you want on a particular date.
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 £50 tickets will be the top-priced (non-premium) seats. Though do note, not all shows offer the cheapest £10 tickets.
For other ways to save at the theatre, see our Cheap theatre tickets guide.

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.

4 September 2023![]()
The 2023 academic year is about to start, and it'll see the biggest shake-up to student finance in England for a decade. The changes are both subtle and massive.
