What happens on the day?

You’ll enter the Royal Albert Hall through Door 12, exchange your voucher for your tickets at the Box Office and wait at the Tours meeting point to take your pre-booked Grand Tour. Once the tour is ready to leave, you’ll begin your journey through this amazing Grade I Listed building, moving through the auditorium, gallery, Royal Retiring Room and all the storied corridors in-between, learning about The Hall’s rich history.

After the tour, you’ll make your way up to the first floor to take your seats in the Verdi restaurant, where you’ll be served your delicious afternoon tea. Treats include a selection of finger sandwiches, scones with clotted cream and jam, sweet desserts and a pot of tea chosen to suit your tastes.

What about insurance?

A cancellation indemnity, subject to terms, is included with every voucher.

How it works

All you have to do is pay for the experience you wish to purchase and we’ll send a voucher and booking information to you or directly to the recipient, then you just need to check the info and book your experience.
