Many West End shows incorporate weekend matinees into their schedules.

After a long, tiring week in the office, there’s nothing better than escaping reality and seeing where theatre can transport you. With lots of musicals, classic drama, and childrens’ shows taking place every Saturday afternoon, now’s the time to plan a wonderful weekend. Check out all the West End shows with performances on Saturday afternoon and look forward to incredible daytime theatre. 

Tickets to Saturday Matinee Musicals in the West End

Saturday matinee performance times vary from show to show. However, most take place in the early afternoon, leaving the mornings and evenings free. If you’re someone who wishes they could sing instead of speak, then you’ll want to fill your weekends with Saturday matinee show tickets to musicals. Become the Queen of Rock and Roll at Tina: The Tina Turner Musical or transform into a dancing queen at ABBA musical MAMMA MIA! 

Saturday Matinee Plays in London

Witness groundbreaking dramas across the West End and beyond at Saturday matinee shows and then talk about them at dinnertime!

Even though it's the longest-running play in the world, Agatha Christie’s timeless whodunnit still leaves audiences agape at the murderer’s identity. Or, if you’re looking for a laugh, then British comedy juggernauts Mischief Theatre will have you rolling in the aisles at The Play That Goes Wrong.
