Sections available in Sadler's Wells

Sadler's Wells Stalls

Stalls

  • 643 seats
  • Rows DD-U

  • The Stalls are narrow and deep, without a central aisle. Rows widen toward the middle, and a gentle curve ensures that seats at the row ends have a good view of the stage.
  • A good rake prevents the view from being blocked by audience members in front. The best seats are in the middle of the Stalls. The first four rows can feel too close, occasionally missing dancers' feet.
  • The First Circle overhang slightly obstructs the top of the stage in the rear Stalls, but this doesn't significantly impact the viewing experience.
Sadler's Wells First Circle

First Circle

  • 420 seats
  • Rows A-M

  • The First Circle is wide and deep, lacking a central aisle. The first four rows curve around the balcony, with the middle seats providing a direct view of the stage.
  • A good rake ensures minimal restrictions. The best seats are in the front rows, which have an unobstructed view due to the absence of a safety rail.
  • The rear seats are somewhat restricted by the Second Circle overhang and are located under technical boxes, which can be distracting. These factors are reflected in the lower pricing for these seats.
Sadler's Wells Second Circle

Second Circle

  • 482 seats
  • Rows A-Q

  • The Second Circle is the highest and most distant section from the stage in the theatre. It features restricted slips along the edge that provide a side view of the stage.
  • Two narrow aisles run down either side, with a slim seating area spanning the length of the balcony. Seats towards the back are the most affordable but can feel quite far from the stage.
  • While sightlines are generally unobstructed, the best views are found closer to the front. The rows have a slight curve, which does not significantly impact the overall view.
