tkts Leicester Square is the original and only official half price ticket booth run by The Society of London Theatre. Originally founded in 1980 as The Half Price Ticket booth, tkts is located at the centre of Leicester Square in the Clocktower building and provides a one-stop ticket shop for the West End. It is easy to find as it's the only free-standing building actually within the Square, rather than around the edge. The nearest Underground stations are Leicester Square and Piccadilly Circus.
Leicester Square is currently being redeveloped by Westminster City Council, so you will notice lots of hoardings around the middle of the Square.
tkts is still open daily for business as usual during the redevelopment work and we can be found in our usual location in the Clocktower building on the South side of the Square.
Hundreds of half price and discount theatre tickets are available on the day of performance and up to a week in advance.

Tickets can only be bought in person.

A service charge of £3 is applied to tickets (excluding full price tickets).
