Guide to London Palladium's seating plan
Stalls
This section is located on the ground floor, nearest to the stage. It is divided into three blocks totalling 1,043 seats, spread across 25 rows (A to XX). The front rows keep viewers close to the action, though you may avoid the first two rows to avoid craning your neck. Views from the back half may be partially obstructed by the Royal Circle overhang, but generally, the Stalls offer excellent sightlines and great proximity to the stage.
Royal circle
The Royal Circle is located on the first level, above the Stalls. It is divided into three blocks by two aisles, with 597 seats across 12 rows (A to L). The seats in this section are particularly favored for its elevated perspective and unobstructed views. The central seats typically provide the best vantage points, but most seats in this section offer excellent visibility.
Grand circle
This is the highest section in the theater, just above the Royal Circle. It is divided into three blocks, with 654 seats across 13 rows (A to M). The seats in the Grand Circle offer a birds-eye view of the stage, but those at the far ends may have angled sightlines due to the section's curve. The first two rows have restricted views due to a safety bar. Overall, seats in the section still provide good views and can be a more budget-friendly option.
Which seats offer the best view?
If money is not a restriction, you can spend on premium seats in the London Palladium. The front row of the royal circle is a great choice, especially if you're watching a musical with plenty of dancing and moving about on stage. Pick the centre seats in the first row of the royal circle to watch the show from the best angle. In the stalls section, the middle seats are considered better than the front row seats due to the height of the stage.
Which seats/sections offer the best value for money?
Don't want to spend all your savings on a West End show? We get it. Our solution? Opt for value-for-money seats that offer a serviceable view of the stage and are easy on the pocket. Surprisingly, seats in the front row of the stalls are often sold at a discount due to the height of the stage. The first row of the upper circle is also a great pick if you're looking for value-for-money seats. In general, any seat labelled ‘restricted view’ in the theatre is value for money since the restrictions are pretty negligible and won't ruin your experience.
London Palladium reviews
Fantastic venue full of beautiful architectural features. Toilets are very modern and clean. Multiple areas to sit and get a drink.
Staff were very welcoming and friendly.
We sat in the front row of the circle , fabulous view of the stage and very comfy seats. We went to see Hello Dolly , what can I say an outstanding "old school " production and Imelda Staunton was incredible , thoroughly recommend the show and venue.
