Booking & Theatre Info For Wicked The Musical
Wicked The Musical is the resident show at the Apollo Victoria Theatre which is a large West End venue located close to Victoria Station and has a capacity of 2328 seats on two levels.
Good views of the stage are available throughout the theatre, however, due to its size, the back of the Circle can feel a long way from the stage! Premium seats offering clear and panoramic views can be found in the centre of the Stalls and row Q is highly recommended as it benefits from the aisle in front, therefore, ensuring completely unobstructed views of the stage. Rows K-T in the Stalls also allow you to absorb the truly spectacular setting and all of the wonderful special effects featured in the show and for those who wish for a fully immersive experience, sitting right up close is also an excellent choice. Studying the seating plan of the venue and exploiting the many different price bands within the theatre is also very much recommended due to the sheer size of the theatre as good value can be found throughout, making it an ideal show for theatergoers on a budget or just searching for good value London theatre tickets or lastminute shows.
Due to the vast size of the venue and that there are eight shows per week, there is usually good value to be found throughout the theatre for off-peak and mid-week performances of Wicked, and seats in the front row of the Stalls are usually sold as ‘Day Tickets’, meaning that die-hard bargain seekers looking to buy cheap Wicked tickets can queue on the day of the performance for reduced prices from 10 am. It is worth noting, however, that sitting this close to the stage may cause a slight neckache from looking up!
