Stalls
The stalls section has a total of 945 seats, including accessible seating.
Rows E to Q, located in the centre of the stalls are premium spots, offering perfect views at the right distance. If you're in the first three rows you may be a little too close to the stage to see the entire action.
Towards the end, it is best to take seats in rows D to P for the best views of the stage. Avoid corner-most seats as they may have obstructed views, but you may be able to bag them at cheaper rates.
Royal circle
The royal circle is the first elevated section of the Lyceum Theatre, with 658 seats. It starts right over Row R of the stalls.
Although the section is not directly in front of the stage, you get a better overview of the whole stage, allowing you to take in the larger picture. While seats 4-24 in Rows A to K offer the best views, the views from Row AA (six seats in total), and end seats of rows A to G are decent.
Grand circle
With 582 seats spread over just thirteen rows, the grand circle is the smallest section of the Lyceum Theatre. Given that the seats are far away from the stage, the views are average at best. The section begins from Row C of the royal circle, with the middle seats from Rows A to F offering the best views out of all.
Which seats would offer me the best views?
The stalls obviously have some of the best seats in the house, given their proximity to the stage. The middle seats from Rows D to P offer incredible views of the musical, and the seats in Rows A to C aren't half bad, either.
However, given that the royal circle offers an elevated view of the stage, it can also be said that the section offers some seriously stunning views of the performance. And as it is the first elevated section, the middle seats of Rows A to K offer some of the best views in the house.
Which seats would offer me the best value for money?
While some of the best seats in the house are in the stalls section, they are also heavy on the pocket. For those that want to see this incredible show without burning a hole in their pockets, look to the grand circle. Rows A to F in the grand circle provide a decent view of the stage, and are not expensive. However, if you are willing to shell out a little more, the AA Row and the middle seats of Rows M to P also offer good views.
Lyceum Theatre reviews
Had a privilege to watch the musical, Lion King at Lyceum Theatre. Performance was out of this world. Thoroughly enjoyed the show. Beautiful theater. But if you are sitting at the back of the theatre, you may have to walk up the long, endless vertigo-inducing staircase. So, be warned. Otherwise, beautiful theatre, incredible production.

We had the most wonderful experience watching The Lion King. It was amazing! We were really looked after well in the ambassador lounge. One of the team took us to the merchandise stand and waited to bring us back. Excellent customer service
