Theatre Tokens are gift vouchers which are exchangeable for tickets at over 300 theatres across the UK, including London's West End. See a full list of participating theatres.

Theatre Tokens are available to buy as Gift Cards or eGifts, available in any amount from £5. Pre-2017, Theatre Tokens were paper vouchers available in denominations of £5, £10 and £20. As Theatre Tokens have no expiry date, all variations of the Tokens are still redeemable, but some older versions of the voucher may need to be replaced for security reasons - see our information on ‘legacy vouchers’.

You can also use Theatre Tokens to buy tickets online at OfficialLondonTheatre.com. This means they can be used in both The Official London Theatre Sale and for Kids Week. The Sale is an annual sale that encourages people to 'Get Into London Theatre' with tickets to big West End shows starting from as little as £10 for the first six weeks of the year. Kids Week is a way of encouraging families to get into the habit of going to the theatre. For the whole of August, a child who’s aged 17 or under can go to any London participating show for FREE as long as they’re accompanied by a full paying adult. Adults can also buy up to two extra children’s tickets at half price. Plus, there’s free activities on selected dates and Kids Eat Free deals available.

You can buy Gift Cards and eGifts online here, or in person from participating theatres or high street retailers including Tesco, Sainsbury's, Asda, Morrisons, Waitrose, John Lewis, WHSmith, Waterstones, Co-op and Boots:

You will need your PIN to redeem and/or register your Theatre Token.

Your PIN is a four digit number that is usually found on the reverse of the Theatre Token behind a scratch-off panel.

On some designs, the scratch-off panel and PIN is found on the front of the voucher.

If the number underneath the scratch-off panel is longer than four numbers, please only use the final four digits (ignoring any dashes) as your PIN. Please ignore the "Void if Removed" warning, this no longer is true and removing the scratch-off panel will not void your Theatre Token.

If you have no scratch-off panel or PIN, you may need to upgrade your voucher. You can do this by sending a photo or scan of your Token number(s) to hello@theatretokens.com

All physical orders are despatched on the next working day (Monday-Friday).

We recommend that all recipients of Theatre Tokens take a moment to register their Tokens on our website.This allows us to trace the Token numbers using your e-mail address in the event that they are lost or stolen. Please note we can only replace the available balance at the time you notify the Theatre Tokens Team.

If you wish to get in contact with a member of the Theatre Tokens team please send us an email.

Did you know you can ask others to top up your existing Theatre Token? Just ask them to Gift Me Theatre!

Your Token needs to be registered before you can do this.

Just login (or create an account if you don't have one yet) and go to 'Register Tokens' tab.

If your Token is already registered there will be an option next to it to 'Request Topup'. Or register your Token to see that option. Please note that you can only topup an eGift or Gift Card. Paper Tokens cannot be topped up.

You can then either enter the email address of a friend to send the topup request to, or copy the individual link that is created and send to whoever you want.

The recipient of the request will see it is from you, and the last 4 digits of the Token - nothing else.

Ask people to hep you celebrate a special occasion, maybe a birthday or wedding. Or collect with your friends to get the Gift Of Theatre for someone!

Theatre Tokens have no expiry date so as long as they haven’t already been redeemed you can use them. For security reasons, some older versions of our Theatre Tokens will need to be replaced before using. We call these our ‘legacy vouchers’ and you can find out more here.

Please make sure you have read and understood the particulars of our “how to use” page.

If you hold older Theatre Tokens, please check whether these are our ‘legacy vouchers’ as they will need replacing before you redeem them.

If you have tried to use your Tokens directly with a participating venue and have given the correct information but your Tokens are still not working, please send a photograph showing the back of the Tokens to hello@theatretokens.com.

If you have registered your Tokens on our website then simply contact us with your e-mail address. We will then trace and cancel your lost Token number and send you a replacement eGift immediately.

Please note we can only replace the available balance at the time you notify the Theatre Tokens Team.

If your Tokens are lost or stolen and have not been registered, please send us the Token numbers (if you have them). Alternatively, providing the Tokens were purchased directly from us, we can trace the Token numbers using the purchaser e-mail address or the original order number.

If your Tokens are lost or stolen, have not been registered and you are not the purchaser, please contact the purchaser to contact us so we can send you a replacement. 

If you need to get in contact with a member of the Theatre Tokens team please send us an email.

No. If the tickets cost less than your Theatre Tokens Gift Card or eGift the remaining balance will be available to use next time. If you are redeeming a paper Theatre Token and require change you will be given a Gift Card with your change value. If the tickets cost more than your Theatre Tokens, you can make the additional payment with the accepted payment method of your chosen theatre.

Theatre Tokens no longer accept Leisure, Compliments or Sodexo SayShopping Vouchers. 

WHAT DO I DO IF I WANT TO SWAP MY ONE4ALL CARD FOR THEATRE TOKENS?

One4all cards can now be redeemed online. Simply follow the instructions below:

• In payment options at the checkout, select ‘Mastercard/Visa'.
• Use the Valid Thru date on the front of the card in the Expiry Date box.
