Promming Tickets

What is Promming?

The popular tradition of Promming is central to the unique and informal atmosphere of the BBC Proms at the Royal Albert Hall.

Day Prommers

Up to 1,400 standing places are available at each Proms concert. The traditionally low prices allow you to enjoy world-class concerts for just £5.00 each (or even less with a Season Ticket or Weekend Promming Pass).
There are two standing areas: the Arena, located directly in front of the stage, and the Gallery, running round the top of the Hall. All spaces are unreserved.

Over 500 Arena and Gallery tickets (priced £5.00) go on sale 30 minutes before doors open. These tickets cannot be booked in advance, so even if all seats have been sold, you always have a good chance of getting in (though early queuing is advisable for the more popular concerts). You must buy your ticket in person, and must pay by cash.

Wheelchair-users who wish to Prom (Gallery only) should queue in the same way but will be redirected to Door 8 once their ticket is purchased.

Further information for disabled concert-goers

Day tickets are available (for cash only) at Door 11 (Arena) and Door 10 (Gallery), not at the Box Office. If you are in doubt about where to go, Royal Albert Hall stewards will point you in the right direction.

Weekend Promming Pass

Beat the queues at the weekend and save money with the Weekend Promming Pass.

In addition to discounted tickets, the Weekend Promming Pass offers guaranteed access up to 10 minutes before start-time to the Arena or Gallery standing areas for all concerts in the Royal Albert Hall on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays (excluding Proms 21, 23, 74, 75 and 76).
