Do you have a friend or family member who’s obsessed with theatre? Have you been looking for the perfect gift for them this Christmas? Theatre Tokens has you covered.
Giving the gift of theatre has never been easier with a Theatre Tokens gift card or e-gift.
Put a smile on the faces of your friends and family by gifting them theatre tickets that they can use at a time (and for any show) that suits them best.
Why choose a Theatre Token over other gift cards?
Theatre Tokens gift cards are a flexible way to give theatre tickets as a gift. They are the only theatre gift card that can be used nationwide. More than 300 venues nationwide accept them, including the best regional theatres and all of London’s famous West End stages.
Unlike many gift cards Theatre Tokens have no expiry date, meaning they can be used whenever the perfect show comes up. Plus, if there’s any money left over they can use that towards another ticket later on.
We’ve been running since 1984 so you can trust us. Plus we’re backed by the not-for-profit Society of London Theatre, so buying with Theatre Tokens helps put money back into the theatre industry.
There’s really no better way to give theatre tickets as a gift.
Where can I buy Theatre Tokens?
You can buy Theatre Tokens gift cards either online or in person at a theatre or lots of high street shops and supermarkets.

What’s the difference between a gift card and an e-gift?
A Theatre Token works the same whether it’s a gift card or an e-gift.
Buy a Theatre Token gift card online
A physical gift card comes with a presentation wallet and has the option of including a personalised greetings card in a range of designs so they can be the complete Christmas gift package.
Gift cards are sent in the post by Royal Mail. All gift card orders placed before 1pm are despatched on the same day, while orders after 1pm are despatched the following working day, excluding weekends and bank holidays.
There are also special limited edition show-themed gift cards, so you can treat someone to an extra special gift if they would love Wicked, Moulin Rouge! The Musical or Stranger Things: The First Shadow – but don’t worry, these cards can still be used for other shows just like a regular Theatre Token.
Buy a Theatre Token e-gift online
An e-gift is sent within 15 minutes of being ordered and can be sent either to you or directly to the giftee, which makes it the perfect solution for someone who’s been accidentally missed off your Christmas list, or as a replacement for a gift that’s been lost in the post.
You can also choose to delay your e-gift being sent, so that it arrives just after midnight on Christmas Day, or whatever occasion you’re looking for.
E-gifts are available in a range of looks including classic Theatre Tokens designs or e-gifts with specific shows, theatre venues or special occasions and messages. You can also include a personalised message with your e-gift to make sure they know who sent it.
Where can I buy Theatre Tokens in person?
You can buy Theatre Token gift cards from the box office of any participating theatre or from many high street retailers including Tesco, Sainsbury’s, Morrisons, Waitrose, John Lewis, WHSmith and Waterstones, plus independent shops and tourist information centres.
To find your nearest Theatre Tokens retailer, head over to our Where To Buy page and enter your town or postcode.
What happens if the ticket costs more/less than I’ve gifted?
Theatre Tokens don’t have to match up to the exact amount of the ticket price. It can be used as part-payment towards a ticket with the rest bought by the ticket buyer. Or if they’ve found a bargain and the ticket is less than what’s on the Theatre Token, they needn’t worry because the remaining amount will stay on the Theatre Token ready to be used in their next purchase, with no expiry date.
What are you waiting for? Give the gift of theatre to your friends and family.
