Tickets
Tickets cost £17 and £13 concessions (减价票).
Tickets are available to purchase on our website. We regret the necessary imposition (征收) of a £1.50 booking fee per ticket, but the increase in our own administration costs has made this unavoidable.
IMPORTANT NOTES
Concession tickets:
Please note, you will need to bring proof of eligibility (资格证明) to buy concession tickets. Student concessions only apply to those with proof of being in full-time education. Other categories for concession tickets include the old, unemployed and disabled.
Seating policy:
There are about 200 chairs at each venue available on a first come, first served basis. There is also a picnic area immediately in front of the chairs for audience members to sit on the lawn (草坪)－though this is ground-level only, you should not use your own chairs in this area. Please note: purchase of a ticket guarantees admission but does not guarantee a seat.
