Score free kids' tix to fab shows like Wicked with Kids' Week

Kids' Week is the ultimate godsend for busy mothers, fathers, sisters and aunts desperate to keep their kids entertained (and educated) throughout the long month of August, whereby all under-16s get to go free to many of the best shows that London has to offer.

Official London Theatre has announced the official programme for Kids' Week 2021, which runs from 1-31 August. Amélie the Musical, David Walliams' Billionaire Boy, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat and Everybody's Talking About Jamie are just some of the many, many shows taking part in the scheme. While Dinosaur World Live, Doctor Who: Time Fracture and Horrible Histories: Barmy Britain are among the experiences.

How does Kids' Week work?

When accompanied by an adult paying full price, little ones can revel in the magic of the West End for nothing - you can take a sibling or a friend along, too, as families pick up two additional children's tickets for half price with every transaction.

Be warned that not every show is available during Kids Week (you can scratch Hamilton off your list).

What else is on besides shows during Kids' Week?

Ticket holders get added perks during Kids' Week: they're also able to attend cool workshops on everything from choreography to magic, as well as getting VIP backstage tours and cast Q&As.

In previous years, activities included choreography workshops with Come From Away and Thriller Live, cast Q&As with The Girl on the Train and Wicked casts, a singing workshop with Waitress and backstage tours with Captain Corelli's Mandolin and The Night of the Iguana.

If you don't get tickets immediately, don't despair. While some shows do sell out instantly, there are usually seats available for shows right up through August - and you may discover a brilliant new production you hadn't known about.
