Ticket discounts

• Rush tickets

  Discounted Rush tickets from £10 are available online from midday every Friday throughout performance runs. They're a great new way to get last minute discounted tickets for shows in Stratford-upon-Avon.

  We put discounted Rush tickets on sale on Fridays from midday to midnight only, for shows the following week. There is a limited number of tickets at £25 (£10 restricted view), for selected performances in the Royal Shakespeare and Swan Theatres.

  Tickets will be allocated on a first come, first served basis and are only available online. Each person can book a maximum of two Rush tickets each week. Rush tickets may only be available in certain levels of the auditorium and on particular price bands.

  Terms and conditions apply. Subject to availability and price band. Not available on premium seats. Rush tickets are not transferable - so if you can't attend the date you booked for, we're unable to transfer your ticket to another date,  

  Please note the use of a promotional code is not required for this offer.
