If you’re looking for something original and interesting to do this Christmas, then quite a lot of bargains can be found. These days there are more and more ticket agencies that can provide cheap theatre tickets - London West End has a lot to offer and a whole variety of shows to suit different tastes.

Depending on your preference, you might choose to see a London musical – these range from some of the more famous, like Les Miserables or Disney’s The Lion King or some of the lesser known musicals like Jersey Boys or the new Million Dollar Quartet. Alternatively, you might wish to go and see one of the wonderful plays that London has on offer, from the long-running Mousetrap or 39 Steps, to one of the newer plays at venues like the Trafalgar Studios. Often ticket agencies will offer tickets at discounted prices, sometimes 50% off or 2 for 1 ticket deals. You have to look around online and find the best ticket prices. Remember to always book theatre tickets with an official agency. There are lots of websites selling tickets, but not all are genuine theatre ticket agencies. Always look out for ticket agents who are members of S.T.A.R., then you can be sure that your tickets are genuine. The last thing you want to do is lose any money on some unscrupulous ticket tout, especially at this time of year!

There are also lots of other wonderful things to do in London this time of year. Why not take a trip on the incredible London Eye, you can buy queue jump tickets in advance and make sure your trip to London goes with a real spin! Or you can spot your favourite celebs in Madame Tussauds – they might be only waxworks, but some of them are so similar to the real thing, it’s scary! From Michael Jackson to Her Majesty The Queen, Britney Spears to Leona Lewis, there’s loads to see at this classic London attraction on the world famous Baker Street.

Whether you check out a musical, play or one of London’s many attractions, our advice is to book in advance to get the best deals possible and make sure you book tickets with official agents.

So when planning a trip to London, make sure you take the time to book your cheap theatre tickets - London West End has so much to offer, especially to those who come prepared!
