I wanna see Billy Elliot!

Options
Hello

I want to take my friend to see Billy Elliot in London for her birthday on Saturday 25th July - matinee performance. I want the best seats possible for a groovy price.

I went during the week in May and got tickets on the spur of the moment from Leicester Square - really good seats in the stalls for under £40. Is it too risky to do the same thing again and hope for the best?

    TKTS now sell some tickets in advance, so you may be able to buy them before the 25th. LastMinute and Discount theatre weren't cheap for that date. Could you maybe have a couple of back up shows just in case you can't get tickets on the day? Don't forget to try calling the theatre directly. They sometimes release seats on the day. Good luck & hope you enjoy the show!

    Hello starlakid

    I'll move your thread to the 'Theatre, Concert & Events Tickets' board.

    Hi, Martin’s asked me to post this in these circumstances: I’ve asked Board Guides to move threads if they’ll receive a better response elsewhere(please see this rule) so this post/thread has been moved to another board, where it should get more replies. If you have any questions about this policy please email [EMAIL="abuse@moneysavingexpert.com"]abuse@moneysavingexpert.com[/EMAIL].
