The Lion King show was by far the best show I've ever been to!! It's a must watch and do not miss it if you're ever in London. My family and I are obsessed!

Sarah M

The most artistic thing I've ever seen! I attended twice and I teared up both times. A must do if you're in London.

Incredible. Rafiki (brown lindiwe mkhize) really made the show with her incredible powerful voice and stellar comic acting. Scar, nala singing shadowlands, zazu and timon and pumba were all great too.

Get the Champagne Experience Package with Ambassador Lounge entry .. Totally worth it !! Free beverage, snacks and most importantly “THE ICE CREAM ” !! The center of the stalls has the best view ..

Very recommended Lion King Show ! Traditional Theatre . Very classical seating set ups. Feeling like Medieval Era! Creative Show & delicious popcorn here. Enjoy the show.

King Lion is amazing! Highly recommended for everyone. Cons:. It was very hot on the grand circle seats by the end of performance , so do not wear too many clothes , ventilation is not good.

We came here to see the Lion King as my late birthday present. It didn't disappoint. We loved it - was worth wanting to see it since I was 4/5. Can't wait to go again. Thank you for the amazing show!!

One of the best shows I have ever seen. If you're studying abroad here, this show is a must. You can take a double decker bus there, or the tube. Made some great friends along the way. Unbelievable.

The Lion King in one word: AMAZING!! The props and costumes are very big, hence it was not a big problem seating at the highest level. However, I feel that binoculars are needed during some parts.

Had a nice relaxing meal afterwards at Sophie's Steakhouse , just down the block. The food there is delicious, and the service is attentive but not fussy.

Lion King at this theatre just makes you realise that you'll always stay a kid at heart... It was one of the most wonderful experiences...

Ming Cheong

Really good show. :) Bravo and well done. Love it so much. Will watch again when in London again..

Stalls have a great view , some of the show reaches out to the aisles. Try and get a central seat.

Foodie

There is a steep rake in the Grand Circle area, so be careful while moving towards your seat ???? Won't recommend this sitting area for people scared of heights ????

Marley

Bob Marley's international breakthrough was fashioned at this one-time music venue , when over two nights in 1975 he played in front of a packed crowd - the concerts having sold out in just two hours.

A must see for all visitors, advance booking required..

Rebecca Quayle

Literally amazing! Even though it's expensive , it's well worth the money. I've been twice, and would definitely go again!

David Miller

Loved the lion king, but the other kids watching can be very annoying. Parents don’t know how to look after their own kids!

Richi Mohanty

The lion king show was reminder of the child that lived inside me.. One of the most wonderful experiences!
