I’m a member and I’m unable to book tickets for the new season online. What should I do?
If you are member of the National Theatre and experiencing issues booking online please try the following tips before contacting the box office:
-
Different levels of membership offer different booking dates. You can see the booking dates for each upcoming season on this membership page once they have been confirmed.
Ensure that you are logged in. If you are not logged in the website will not recognise your membership status and will not offer you all the dates and performances that should be available to you. To check if you are logged in please look at the top of the current website page you are on. If you are not logged in the band at the top of this page will say “Login”.
-
If you have logged in and you are still unable to book for new season performances please press “F5” on your keyboard. This will refresh your page and should show the most up to date information.

It may be helpful to try booking on a different device or browser e.g. Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Safari or Edge.
If you have followed these steps and you are still experiencing difficulties purchasing tickets, please contact the Box Office on 020 7452 3060, or Tweet us @nationaltheatre, and a member of our team will be happy to help you to book online.
How do I prepare for members' online booking?
Members benefit from online booking prior to the opening of general booking. You need to use your online membership account in order for this to work.
Forgot your login or password?
Your login will be the email address you registered with. If you have forgotten it, you can request an email that provides you with a link to change your password here.
If there was no email address printed on the letter that accompanied your latest membership mailing, then we do not have an email registered on your account. Please contact the Box Office on 020 7452 3000 to set up a login to book online.
Online booking tips
- Online booking opens at midday for all membership levels. For the best experience, please don't login before 11.45am and don't view the dates listings before midday, as the dates pages will be stored on your computer for at least 2 minutes, which could mean you won't see the dates turn to links straight away at midday
- Do make sure you are using an up-to-date and supported web browser (Internet Explorer 7 or higher and the latest Firefox, Safari or Google Chrome browsers)
- Do make sure you turn on cookies and javascript in your web browser - you'll get an error page if they're not and you won't be able to complete your booking
- Do have your login details and card details to hand when starting to book (including your VerifiedbyVisa or SecureCode passwords if you have registered your card with either of these servcies), as you will only have 25 minutes to complete your booking once tickets are in your shopping basket.
